Yes, this means a ton of carbon ends up in the atmosphere instead of in the trees. The right move would be thinning and prescribed burns, but this administration isn’t going to do that.

These are our forests. They belong to the US people. They’re being stolen from us. For private profit of a few.
It’s an American tradition.
I mean, as the other guy pointed out, you as a people stole the fucking lot and literally massacred thousands upon thousands of people to do it.
Shoe’s on the other foot now, eh?
Ah yes, because native Americans celebrate the raping of their lands as long as the people who took it from them hundreds of years ago descendants (unlikely, given how many generations are immigrants) are also having their lands raped too.
Get the fuck out here with this brain-rot level argument. 🤦
Go stir the pot somewhere else.
that shit didn’t stop happening ‘hundreds of years ago’ natives are getting fucked over by America regarding land rights as we speak
fuck off yourself
obviously you wouldn’t know this though because it only matters when it happens to you, typical privileged white america
You’re right in that it was a comment designed to “stir the pot”, if by that you mean, “make someone stop for a moment and consider their position in history”.
I agree that any right thinking person, of Native American origin or otherwise should be aghast at the current US administrations utter destruction of everything, from old growth forest to human structures of civilisation.
Reading it back, my comment sounds flippant and ignorant. That’s on me for commenting pre-coffee and smoke. 💛
I don’t think you all on .ee can help that, you seem to be solely a propaganda instance.
Have you even looked at my comment history to decide what kind of person I am, or did you decide that purely from where I registered my account over a year ago?
Have I seen you around yes, I believe we’ve even interacted before. That said no in don’t profile creep which is why I made a general statement I think I’m probably correct on.
Funny you say that from the padded room instance. 🤣
And Britain stole the world, what point does any of this make? What do you want done about it?
They did. And created and taught others some of the most reprehensible methods of population control and genocide the world has ever seen.
Acknowledging it rather than denying it. Learning from the darkest parts of our history, to never have it be repeated is what I want done.
Ignorance of our history is why it keeps repeating itself. Gestures widely
yea if 60% ish of America could self reflect we’d not be in the state we are today
Both times it was the government to the greatest extent.
“The government” offered money for the task, and thousands took that money and got on with the job.
“The Government” is people. Usually the worst, most manipulative self-serving people. It does what other people let it get away with.
You stole that whole country
Moot, pointless, argument.
This argument accomplishes what exactly? Aside from trying to just stir the pot or create culture war drama?
It’s okay for public lands to be raped and razed now? Because (like damn near all the land in the world, everywhere) was taken during war/conflict?
the original comment was about ‘we’re being stolen from’ seems pretty relevant but I get how white America doesn’t want to think about it
deleted by creator
oddly relevant
Our native Americans the only ones who are allowed to be concerned about the country it’s land and the environment?
Your argument and point again only serves to further the culture war aspect of this and does nothing to address the problem at hand.
no but only being concerned now when it directly impacts you is pretty funny
that’s just your little opinion
A little opinion is appropriate in response to a small minded comment.
No one asked for yours anyway.
And are you mislabeling it as ‘small minded’ bcs it’s directly confronting your hypocrisy?
Looks like you’ve got a case of the projections.
And who asked for yours? Are you just special?
LOL, I’m not an American.
ROFLMAO I can’t even, ZERO self awareness with this bloke.
Oh you’re from the country that’s clearly in the same boat.
Or the bigger boat since you plundered a lot more.
American thinks I’m British, ROFLMAO intensifies.
imagine feeling the need to get involved when you have no skin in the game
how about you watch your people get fucked a few generations and while it’s going on this moment people are complaining about your response over their hypocrisy
We all have skin in the game when the world’s largest economy begins to implode due to the ignorance, apathy, and general incompetence of its citizenry.
I too predicate my responses on baseless assumptions about others. I’d explain how your comment doesn’t apply in the slightest, but there’s no use conversing with those who don’t care if their responses are based on reality, simply that they sound “hard truthy”. They’ll just make more things up!
Ah, a troll.
Whataboutism.
2 wrongs don’t make a right.
The point is that you admit your wrongs.
As they clearly can’t and get very defensive, as hypocrites do.
“They’re gonna chop down national forests”
“bUt WhAT aBoUt ThE iNdIaNs???”
bruh
more like ‘now you care? lol’
Sorry I didn’t care 400 years ago. I’ll try harder.
How many cared when it was decided there would be an oil pipeline through the pittance they were relegated to? More land stolen, and everything around it polluted in time to add insult to injury.
Did you care then, just a few years ago?
I mean, people didn’t do nothing.

that’s better than nothing but that’s self interest and farmers were right to be worried
none of that changes anything on a national level nor changed the actual outcome so the criticism is still valid
it’s happening to native lands in the US while we speak, the fact you are not even aware earns the ‘lol’
Americans get real mad when confronted with their hypocrisy.
What country are you from, and how many people did it ship over to north america to colonize it?
lol this thread full of privileged white Americans is whining about takes and then you drop this and it’s upvoted
double down on the hypocrisy guys
We didn’t export criminals.
And besides the point, it’s about admitting it happened.
Which is very difficult for Americans looking at the angry reactions.
yep
The opinion of people who write like this can’t be take seriously
👍
