Another Columbus day, and you know what this means? Another round of Anti-Colonialist vs. Indigenous people’s day banter. And as usual, I am here to gum up the works. Put the monkey in the wrench. Sabotage the narrative.

In years past, I have repeated a simple truth. There were no indigenous people in North America. They all came from somewhere else. When they arrived, they fought for or hacked out whatever resources were required to survive and thrive. They advanced as a culture or stagnated. They conquered rivals or were conquered. A cycle that continued for millennia and continues today.
Continues today?
By definition, indigenous means native to a geographic area. All that really means is that when you got there, someone or something was already here.
Indigenous people or things belong to the country in which they are found, rather than coming there or being brought there from another country.
If you were conceived and born here, you are indigenous no less than the natives discovered by European settlers who were also born here. Their ancestors were not from around here either. Their claim is no different from yours.
A trend that continues to this very day.
Muslims are moving here, setting up mosques, taking over neighborhoods, and then expanding their influence. Demanding locals adhere to their worldview. This is a religious conquest.
Meanwhile, Democrats are obsessed with migrating peoples into these lands from other nations with the belief that they will become wards of the state, earn or receive the right to vote, and then put them in power.
Once there, they have committed to bringing back an old-world European form of rule to replace the now indigenous Constitutional Republic—an Oligarchic ruling class wrapped in technocratic feudalism.
And they are willing to fight for that supremacy.
So, Happy Columbus Day. A few weeks from now, we may either be battling in the streets to protect our electoral victories or preparing for a much longer fight against tyranny.
In the latter case, it will not make any difference where your ancestors were from or whether you were born here or even what religion you follow.
The ruling class left will not treat you any differently. Your usefulness has a shelf life, and their victory is it. They were only using you to gain power.
Whether indigenous or not, you might want to choose liberty while you still can. For the good of all the people.
