    Alright, but we still remember all the shit that happened to the indigenous people at the hands of European settlers, and more importantly, so do the indigenous peoples of the world. That's not going away, even if the liberal consensus is that it's all in the past and we should forget about it. This is all part of a historical process, and history doesn't end once the liberals say it does. It's all cause and effect. What I don't like about this post is that it's just handwringing about the state if things, thereby implying that these struggles are, in fact, in the past. If this is all going to be forgotten, then why do we bother talking about it? We should be documenting and discussing precisely so that it doesn't get forgotten.
