Further my other comment, and a bit inspired by David McNeill's words... Land Back! Give ALL the land back to the People who were here LONG before anybody else was, AND, give FULL and REAL reparations to ALL the descendants of the Peoples who were stolen from THEIR lands, and brought over here to do the work the colonizers chose not to do yada yada yada (I don't need to mince my words) Enough is enough... the party's over. Socialism! or barbarism.
