Ah, Evergreen State College. You can't say that represents Amerikkka though.
Because people feel empowered to believe that they know better than everyone else at everything.
And those economies are very highly dependent on tourism. Good luck balancing the budget this year.
Dude, I was in the Place de la Republique during that.
That's the patronizing noble savage myth at it again. "Society was so peaceful and fair when indigenous peoples ran this land." Yeah, and so was murdering other tribes at random, raping women, and executing trans people as cursed by the spirits.

A single example would be just the Spanish conquest of the Aztecs. They conquered the Aztec empire with a very small Spanish force, because they found eager allies in the surrounding peoples, who hated the Aztecs due to a long history of oppression. At the time of conquest, they’d been sacrificing in the range of 10-20,000/year.
Now though, it’s all a myth, and the Aztecs were peaceful, benevolent rulers, beloved by everyone, until genocided by the evil Spaniards alone.
