“native americans” is a very broad brush. pan-indianism, or whatever one may call it, is a recent phenomenon brought about by common interests. there are many native tribes, each with their own culture, traditions, agendas, etc. so, the main people who criticized warren were the cherokees. cherokees have money they dont want to spread around, and have marginalized “black cherokees” who are the descendents of the slaves they once owned and fucked (oh yes they did). cherokees were originally from the carolinas... they recently had to accept them as members. see: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cher...en_controversy other people also complained mainly on the basis of tribal sovereignty—tribal membership is decided by tribes not dna tests. which, sure. obviously. some natives did come out in her defense though. as you know natives are not a monolithical entity. but anyway there was plenty of protest when pocahontas was first uttered https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...ise/902837001/ as for the mental one, we will not give it a further platform by discussing it. |

yeah. warren never claimed tribal membership, only ancestry, which the dna proves.
the harvard listing is another story and im not clear on that. back in the day though a drop of indian “blood” made you an indian. same as black. and it was the white people who would then exclude you that determined that identity. not that the tribe would accept you. these days however tribes are the ones who decide who is a member, gets a casino check, is eligible for ihs coverage, scholarships, etc. there are federally recognized tribes and there are tribes who arent (and often fight for recognition). indian law is a huuuuge area actually. forget about digesting it. |

I'm very nervous about tomorrow. Maybe the polling is all wrong? (Like in 2016?) And I'm really fucking baffled about how many tight races there are after two years of this nightmare. How can there not be a blue wave?
The Dems need a leader, fast. And hopefully not one in his/her late 70s. Fuck, come on Dems.

More fake news ads from an embarrassing President. Good luck America on mitigating the influence of this idiot and the Regressive Party. |

anyway it discusses classical & egalitarian liberalism, various proponents, and ultimately argues the threat to liberalism does not come from unserious postmodernism (lol) but from, eh, call it “inherent contradictions” or whatever (no it’s not marxist). please let me know if it still wont work tomorrow. maybe the pc police blocked it? (i hope i dont start to sound like a reactionary...) anyway the... i thought it’s a good... map |

Why does this thread never register that I've read the posts on it? It thinks the last one I saw was five pages ago
