Give it another generation or two ... we have to wait for the old guard to die off before mentalities can really change.

A neat bit of history about the Scots is that they left a tiny word in Indigenous language in the James and Hudson Bay region.
I'm Indigenous and I know lots of families that have direct connections to the Irish, Scots and French .... hell, there is a few stories in my family tree where they might have been a Scot or Irishman in there somewhere about a hundred years back or more.
We have a word .... SAGANASH ... in the Ojibway/Cree, Cree, full Ojibway languages ... it generally means to describe someone (a Native person) who is trying to be white or act like a white person ... it's derogatory but not terribly, it's a word to just make fun of someone ... it's not on the level of calling a black person the n-word
The word .... SAGANASH ... I always thought was just another Indigenous word and never thought about it. It wasn't until a few years ago that I discovered that it is from the Scots language ... the original word is Scots and pronounced ... SASANACH ... a word they used to describe the English ...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sassenach
And the modern Indigenous word ... SAGANASH ... also has different meanings now ... in some places it is still a word used to make fun of others ... they use it this way around northern Ontario and western James and Hudson Bay region ... but over on the Quebec side, the word seems to lose its original meaning and it is just normalized to almost nothing ... to the point where it became a family name ... one well known Member of Parliament in Canada was Romeo Saganash, an Indigenous Cree from James Bay.
It makes sense because in the original Dr Seuss ... who the hell were the people of Whoville and the Grinch? Were they human? Human hybrid? Animal? Animal-hybrid? Were they part of this universe? or another alternate universe?
Same here .... if I've read or looked at something, I'll just upvote, just to encourage people to post or comment again.
Even if someone says I'm wrong on something or disagrees, I'll still upvote. I've been corrected lots of times in the past (on many other platforms) so I don't mind being told I'm wrong if I objectively look at my content and see how I was wrong.
The only time I'll downvote is if I come across blatant hateful, ugly, racist, homophobic, misogynistic crap.

The stupid one is not Trump ... chances are he knows how dumb this all is.
The stupid ones are the people who designed and organized all this, the American people who just take it as normal and all the supposed professionals everywhere in journalism and news agencies who just report non critically.
He isn't the idiot .... we are.

HALT!! ..... where is your bling!? ... you must have bling like me!
I saw this photo a while ago on the internet ... someone had taken a modern photo of this location as it looks like today. It's special to be able to stand and look at a location that was once inhabited by so many generations of humans. It makes one realize just how little time we spend in this reality we call life.
