we see Microsoft employees apologize to 20 Indigenous tribes for being in Seattle.
Please correct me if I am wrong - This is why I feel every American should be disgusted:
-
The purpose of a sincere apology is promise future reparations of some kind
-
Microsoft themselves has NO intention of paying these reparations (despite being in a perfect position to give back any land they feel guilty about)
-
The expectation is that YOU will have to repay BIPOC to assuage Microsoft's guilt....
-
If I wanted to be held responsible for historic crimes of my people I would go and live in North Korea - I hear they love that shit.
Oh balls, they're starting that on your side of the border too? I can't go to a meeting in my office with more than 10 people in it without some masked HR flack or middle manager coming in and telling us we're on stolen ground.
Wait until they move from "Land Acknowledgement" to "Truth and Reconciliation". It's every bit as Orwellian as it sounds.
The good news is, starting that stage gives you a sniper rifle and about 2x max ammo cap in reloads. It should be enough to quash any "but muh land" nudniks.
