"Our sacred mountain," says the man from California about a mountain in South Dakota, all the while being part of a population that gets more welfare and government handouts than even single moms.
I love pointing this out so I'll take this opportunity:
Reminds me of Chris Ray Gun being identitarian about being "of Puerto Rican descent".
You're a yankee, Chris. You were born and raised in the largest yankee city in existence. You're always going to be a yankee. To pretend otherwise goes against your perception of what racism means.
He was trying to keep it low on the political stuff but I do not think he posted to much stuff lately.
The last video of his I watched was the resident evil VIII one and it had 0 politics in it. He did piss me off with "Six Days In Fallujah", he managed to make it more about the right trying to censor stuff way back when then the left hating the game.
Some bands of Lakotas became the first Indians to help the United States Army in an Indian war west of the Missouri during the Arikara War in 1823.[17]
In 1843, the southern Lakotas attacked Pawnee Chief Blue Coat's village near the Loup in Nebraska, killing many and burning half of the earth lodges.[18] Next time the Lakotas inflicted a blow so severe on the Pawnee would be in 1873, during the Massacre Canyon battle near Republican River.[19]
Man, that barely scratches the surface of how imbecilic these sorts of flowery Native American claims to the Black Hills (including Rushmore) are if you do even a little bit of research into the history of the region. The US has actually controlled the Black Hills longer than the Lakota - 132 years as of this year - since they first conquered it from the Cheyenne in 1776, and lost it fully to the Americans in 1889 (113 years).
Suffice to say, the Lakota aren't some autochthons to whom the Black Hills rightfully belonged then, now and forevermore on the grounds that it is the sacred land to which they are 'native'. The Americans conquered that particular stretch of hills & mountains as fairly as the Lakota did from their own predecessors, and any sane administration would if anything be more in-the-right than Andrew Jackson was to tell any court which ruled otherwise 'fuck off, go try to enforce your bullshit ruling yourself if you dare'.
Not justifying past actions but for most of history land conquest was very common. Nobody asks who the Sioux conquered for their land. People get mad when you point out that slavery has been practiced everywhere, but I fear way too many American students think that the US is the only country in history to conquer people and take their land or have slaves.
Surely they must have insurance on that mountain right? I mean it's just a little vandalism. Making monuments and art is just the language of the unheard for us whites.
The "this land is mine" animation applies everywhere. You lost, what you should be doing is praising the monument for symbolizing that the conquerors let you live, unlike what YOUR ancestors did to the ones THEY genocided to take the land.
Lakotas are not Black Feet. Black Feet stole the land from others. It was stolen by these from others. It is the way of things. Quit eating your text books and start reading them.

Idk same shit as always but it's pretty clear he's been taking progressively larger sips of the anti-American koolaid.

Seems a tad hypocritical "LakotaMan"

That's by design.
Sad but true.

my ancestors letting yours live was a mistake

get the fuck out of MY mountain, Indio
