I’m pretty dismissive of what indigenous people believe.
At least they had societies which allowed belief in something greater than themselves, unlike your white liberal ass. The religious beliefs of the Aboriginal peoples in Australia were shaped by 40k+ years of understanding of their land and environment, which led them to successfully terraform the continent into a botanical paradise.
This was all quickly undone in 200 years by the enlightened soy cuck Christian Rationalist invaders and now we have droughts, soil erosion, invasive species and bushfire problems.
thats a good point, ill clarify by saying "belief in a nondestructive communitarian worldview that supports a narrative of hope and affirmation greater than themselves", either way, settlers have no right to be dismissive of the beliefs of the indigenous peoples whose land they are fucking up, respectful disagreement at most
but theyre non native, and there were probably over 20 edible, easy to grow, native alternatives with varying nutritional benefits that were wiped out because the crackers killed everyone and fucked up the land.
I regret to inform you that is the only people who could speak to a divinity were a special class not defined merely by earnest belief and dedication, and that class is gone, then that raises a number of questions about that divinity.
We had lots of Snow earlier in last week but it has rained and now it looks like a green Christmas. I remember when I was a small girl and the Nish Nobs would go hunting for food. Some times when it was a mild spell and the porcupine would be out they would kill it for the quills. And also the meat is real good, but they had to fetch it from a long ways. And it being so sharp. And nearby they would drag it, they would cut a branch from the tree that had sort of a hook. They would pull it through its mouth and drag it home. Then the Old Ones would get mad and scold them. They believed when you done it that way you were bringing on a big snow storm. I’m afraid if I tell this to the White people they will make me drag a porcupine up and down the ski slopes to prove Our beliefs

I would argue that western culture's belief in white supremacy is "something greater than themselves".

what grass lmao half of it was turned into desert and the other half is on fire
touch tomatoes. they're pretty easy to grow and a million times better than store bought ones.
but theyre non native, and there were probably over 20 edible, easy to grow, native alternatives with varying nutritional benefits that were wiped out because the crackers killed everyone and fucked up the land.
ask a divine entity of your choice to grant you some extinct native vegetable seeds then
i cant because where i live, the crackers killed everyone who could speak to them
