Trump Leaves Native Americans Out of Columbus Day Speech

[Text Drivers are Killers]

Good for trump. Why honor savages who were living in caves and eating bugs and dying at 32. The arrival of europeans is the best thing that ever happened to injuns.

oct 9 2017 President Donald Trump did not mention Native Americans during his proclamation of Columbus Day, in a break from his predecessor.

"The permanent arrival of Europeans to the Americas was a transformative event that undeniably and fundamentally changed the course of human history and set the stage for the development of our great Nation," Trump wrote in his proclamation, according to The Hill.


"Therefore, on Columbus Day, we honor the skilled navigator and man of faith, whose courageous feat brought together continents and has inspired countless others to pursue their dreams and convictions — even in the face of extreme doubt and tremendous adversity."

Yes we gave them so many thing like smallpox, scarlet fever, measles and flu.

While estimates vary, approximately 20-50 million people are believed to have lived in the Americas shortly before Europeans arrived. Around 95% of them were killed by European diseases. so why didn’t 19 out of 20 Europeans die from Native American diseases?

The short answer is that Europeans simply had more robust immune systems. Several factors contributed to this: first, Europeans had been the caretakers of domestic animals for thousands of years, and had over time grown (somewhat) immune to the common diseases that accompanied the domestication of such food sources. Native Americans, on the other hand, were largely hunters and gatherers, and even in some domestication cases, it’s thought exposure was limited. For instance, as Jared Diamond, author of Guns, Germs, and Steel states,

The Incas had llamas, but llamas aren’t like European cows and sheep. They’re not milked, they’re not kept in large herds, and they don’t live in barns and huts alongside humans. There was no significant exchange of germs between llamas and people.
.

Second, Europeans lived in more densely populated areas than Native Americans. When so many humans live together in relatively close quarters (particularly with lack of good, or any, sewage systems and the like), disease spreads quickly with the general population continually getting exposed to numerous pathogens. The Europeans’ bodies had to adapt to dealing with many of those diseases, and for those who survived, their immune systems thrived as a result.

The third factor is travel and exchange. Groups of people and animals moved around a lot in Europe and had interactions particularly through war and trade, resulting in the spread of disease across continents—and, eventually, some level of immunity for the survivors.

And they gave us syphilis. THINK, white-hating racist.

That seems only fair after we gave them so much.

They died of disease and starvation exponentially more before we came as can be seen by their population explosion following the arrival of western civilization, they can thank us for permanent agriculture, domestication of livestock, the wheel, and the actual concept of diseases.

i often wonder what would america look like if europeans had not arrived. The dominant culture that would have spread would be the mayan/incan ones which practiced human sacrifice.
