With one general exception, I don't blame anyone for looking at the world today and lamenting about muh ancestors.

West Euros did a whole ton of murdering of one another just like we describe NA natives doing, it is a phase of civilization. Eventually the situation develops, with or without external ahem, help. Who knows what could have been.

It's the right of like 92% of the world's population to complain about lost possibilities, get mad, and bug out. We will soon be smushed entirely into NATO, EU, BRICS, more separated than ever from our individual ethnic "what-could-have-been's" while our lives are run by an even smaller, more condensed group of elite than ever
