Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee by Dee Brown, and A Cry From the Heart by William Sears should be required reading in sophomore year.
Jesus fucking Christ
got crucified by believers, and Liberals washed their hands off the innocent murders.
But yes, this is how the “Protect the Children!!” party actually praxis: Gunning them and raping the corpses.
This asshole shouldn't even be directing an Arby's. Go fuck yourself Pete.
....How many soldiers who were at Wounded Knee are still around today? 🤨
None. This is naught but virtue signalling
Vice signalling
this decision is final
One day, this comment will hopefully have aged like milk. What a sappy baby.
It is his final decision. Not the final decision.
If it doesn't, it will be because the US collapsed in on itself in an unrecoverable way
Early on, Medals of Honor were passed out like candy. In the Civil War, a unit of men was awarded for actions that took place after they demobilized. In 1917 an Army Medal of Honor inquiry stripped 911 medals from the "undeserving". This includes the only female recipient, who was a surgeon in the Civil War and POW after she crossed the lines to treat civilians.
Wounded Knee is too good for that pig.
Obliterated Knees.
WarCrime: the only beard oil/supplement subscription service for real patriot warriors
Beards are woke now
The juxtaposition of this statement is fantastic. Many Republicans have beards even after they shave their faces ;3
There is no more honor in American institutions until we “reform” them .
"For this 1890 campaign, the U.S. Army awarded 31 Medals of Honor, 19 specifically for service at Wounded Knee.[7][8][56] 18 were awarded in the months after the massacre, and two more awarded in 1893 and 1897 respectively.[57]"
Why weren't these medals pulled 100 years ago?
Because when troops fuck up, you can either own it or give them a medal and call it a win.
It's very common, there's a lot of highly decorated war criminals out there
fuck up
A series of more or less planned events over generations.
Whiskey Pete’s new ideal soldier:
He likes his privates smooth. Smooth and strong.
Don't let congress see that. Mike's Johnson would be standing to attention while he phones his son and asks him to tell him that he's a bad man
Damn at this rate Murica bout to launch war on melanin.
Kegsbreath likes greasing up beefcakes like Mac does
To be fair, I am almost certain that Pete here doesn’t actually know what happened at Wounded Knee. He knows there was a ‘battle’, and that there were ‘Injuns’ involved. Probably was that some patriotic Americans defended themselves against the savage natives, like in the cowboy movies! Those cowboys deserve their medals!
Of course, now that the US secretary of defence has tweeted his ignorance on a social media platform, there is no taking it back, or apologising for his misunderstanding. He can only double down and defend a massacre.
Nah, he knows. It's about drawing outrage because that's the only thing that wins them credit any more with their base.
We are witnessing the fall of man. Us Europeans are surrounded on both sides by absolute madness. We're just trying to live our lives here, goddammit. I wasn't counting on this type of world for my kids when we were starting our family in 2018. Fuck, if I knew then... I don't know what we would've done.
What a profound way to finally receive comeuppance for the colonial era. To be flanked by the madness Western Europe's imperialism cultivated in the world for centuries. I can't think of a more poetic outcome. Its beautiful almost in a tragic way.
If this message is from Eastern Europe please disregard.
Northern Europe. Far north. It's poetic in a grand sense, spanning time and space, sure, but when you look at the countries now, we're not trying to start any shit. Just trying to do the best by our people in a democratic and peaceful way. I dunno wtf Israel, USA, whatever tf countries in Asia and Africa are trying to do by all this murdering and fascism...ing. "Just be nice." Right? Not that hard. 😩
