If you put things in such stark black and white terms then every president has supported genocide; they’ve been funding Israel since the beginning, and America itself is built on stolen, colonized, and occupied land.
In truth elections have consequences, and across the board things will be substantially worse under trump than Biden.
I think you forgot that I stated I’m a leftist. Specifically I’m an anarchist. I already think every president in history is a criminal. I’m talking about what’s happening in the here-and-now in the midst of the second Nakba.
Didn’t you say you were going to vote for Cornel West? What are his thoughts on the genocide of Native Americans and whether the land should be returned to them?
He made a statement on Indigenous People’s Day about what he already plans to do and states plainly that he needs to do more work as a scholar and activist to learn about how to bring justice to the Native Americans that were genocided in pursuit of Manifest Destiny.
To this end, today I’m pleased to announce that as president, I will establish a Federal Office for Tribal Equity and Liberation … This office will be charged with guiding and assisting me with confronting and dismantling challenges specific to our Indigenous siblings - from access to clean water, clean air, and a healthy environment, to ending the epidemic of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, to ensuring that all treaties are upheld and respected in ways that are perpetually monitored and evaluated to increase justice and maximum efficacy. This office will also inform my administration on the best and most expeditious ways to codify and enforce FPIC (Free, Prior and Informed Consent), as well as the Land Back Commission I’m committed to forming as part of my Policy Pillars for a Movement Rooted in Truth, Love, and Justice.
Bringing justice to those that were genocided would entail ending the occupation, returning all stolen land to their ancestors, and probably transferring all assets to them. Not some half-assed “I’ll strive to create an office to ease the pain”
part of his platform is to use FPIC to return land equitably to tribes, as well as issue various reparations. It’s hard to get any more clear than that. Cornel West has always meant exactly what he says.

As I said: half assed
Retreat, return, repair. Anything less is just trying to excuse and continue to profit off the genocide
you aren’t a leftist, so you’ll forgive me if i don’t let you set the standard.
I’m not a leftist because chex notes I want to see the stolen land returned?
Glad you’re setting the standards here
