Why would you want to just tax Wall Street and have them pay for student debt? That’s an idiotic concept.

Yes sir, mister president.

I hope you realize the United States is a Republic, not a democracy. and that the Electoral College is there for a reason. The states are the ones who cast the vote to the candidate. I’m not really good at explaining this so I recommend you watch this like 10 minute video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUX-frlNBJY

🙃 this won’t get enough attention 🙃

Your post is littered with false shit that I don’t even know where to begin. Firstly, with the CNN tweet, the European settlers didn’t up and kill 56 million Natives, this is either from bad wording or just CNN showing it’s left winged bias since most of the deaths were by disease being spread.
Columbus didn’t send loose pigs just to kill as many Indians as he could because he was some kind of sadist.This would’ve been stupid because he stated in his Journal that, “They must be good servants and intelligent, as I see that they very quickly say all that is said to them, and I believe that they would easily become Christians, as it appeared to me that they had no sect.[religion]...” this wouldn’t have made much sense if he had then decided to set pigs loose to kill the very people he wished to convert. With Hernan Cortes, he didn’t send bodies in Tenochtitlan’s aqueducts, he just blocked it and eventually destroyed it during the siege.
The English section is a complete ass-pull since I have no idea where you even got that from. If you didn’t know, the English settlers weren’t committing genocide on the Indians 24/7, they had good relations with the Indians initially and were just trying to get by. They didn’t shoot children in front of their mothers and made them mop blood from their fucking hair. Human scalps weren’t used as currencies, they were used as bounties for Indians that were accused of helping massacre the English settlers in an area. Actually the initial bounties for Indian hostiles was their head, so their scalp is a step-down from that. The English killing whole villages and “erasing them from their maps” was usually in response to Indian raids of English settlements. The English settlers themselves had little knowledge about the Indians and reading reports of Indian raids or “massacres” didn’t really help, so they weren’t going to take any chances.
The Americans have fucked the Natives over for a long time so I don’t really know about the American part.
In the end, although some settlers (Spanish Conquistadors) absolutely massacred Native populations, they shouldn’t be seen as what every damn settlement did. And look, no one’s innocent in the history of colonization of the New World. Mexica religion was centered around sacrifice of stabbing the chest and taking out the heart while the person was alive, they did this to PoWs’. Isabel Montezuma, a Mexica Indigenous woman aided Hernan Cortes in sieging Tenochtitlan and essentially betrayed the Mexica people. Indians raided and killed English settlers to try and scare them away from the New World. Some Indian cultures involved brutality and cannibalism. It wasn’t just the “white settlers” that did messed up shit during that time period.
This is insane
