@walterbays The United States worked to systematically destroy Native American culture and language, and then one of those languages helped us win the Second World War.
That seems pretty ironic to me.

@NiveusLepus @walterbays In doing so they saved much more than just this nation. Imagine a world where Hitler won.
@Lucky188 @NiveusLepus A bit of a tangent: I read Empire of the Summer Moon for some of the history not allowed to be taught in school. I was struck by how accurately the epithets savage and barbarian described some of the tribes. But far more savage and barbarian were the American, Texan, and Spanish "tribes".
