Title based on multiple sources, not just the one I linked, but overall very difficult to verify

    Im not seeing an issue with the spirit of your post, maybe the other poster can clarify.

    I would take a beat to reflect on the fact that not all American Indians are necessarily radicalized against the US. Doesn’t mean a radical position is incorrect, but it’s important to avoid a “white savior” trope or something like that (not saying youre doing this by posting on Lemmy, but in a different context).

    It could come off like “yeah they should put their bodies on the line, and fight for what’s right!”, but if youre gonna talk like that it’s important that youre out there with or even in front of them doing the same thing. Once again I don’t think a random comment online is all that serious, but I think you and I have the same energy so I’m just thinking it through. We obviously dont want to harm or offend our comrades with the way we discuss these things!
