    Undoubtedly good, but the wikipedia article only lists two American genocides against Native Americans (the California genocide and Trail of Tears)?? And accredits the Soviet Union with 4 genocides lmao

        To be fair it was mostly the ethnic deportations (which was obviously bad, but deliberate genocide? Idk) but also the Holodomor lol

          CW: Violence against women, SV

          Eli from Russia visited one of these “ethnic” Oblasts or whatever and she was immediately assaulted (the only time she’s ever been assaulted while traveling) by the ‘police’ no-less, their flag is a 3 headed Swastika and the most “famous” thing about their culture was legally kidnapping women repeatedly “for marriage” until they gave up trying to escape and it was only formally outlawed again in like 2010 or 2015

          After watching that video I immediately understood why the Soviets tried to dilute cultures through mass immigration and deportation into other parts of the USSR, just absolutely satanic levels of fascism and reaction

      the indigenous need a stronger lobby in this system; but i doubt it’s possible since the americans & canadians have set themselves apart from the rest of the peoples in all the americas.
