    But the land you occupy was stolen from an identifiable group.

    Now that it has come into possession you should give it back.

    You’re in possession of something stolen. Give it back to its rightful owner.

    Why isn't this argument applied to Muslims who colonized most of Asia (and failed at Europe)?

    Or the Butu African tribe that conquered the continent of Africa before any white people arrived? Millions died in conflict...

    Or the Mongols in Asia?

    You are programmed to only see skin color, but all groups did the same ****. You just hate the winners who ironically, set up a better world for everyone.

    I invited @Tomstro to fitness connection on 1960 to come hoop with me when i was in town...I have no idea where yall MAGA get this ferish of lesbian gym from. You just sound like a weirdo and a dork. I even told him id meet him at any bball gym in Houston and even offered to send my ID to Nook or someone so he won't be afraid of me doing anything ?

    He obviously backed out and exposed himself a p***y. Not really surprising

    What? All land not owned by Native American Indian tribes is stolen and not given back. You aren't making sense.

    HTM is trying to use hypocrisy as an argument, which is laughable because these aren't equivalent situations.

    'We stole land in the past, so we should make it right' is NOT the same as 'We stole land in the past, so let's steal more land now.'

    I mean at this point most land has been owned by other people at some point. Everyone in 2026 and onwards should just use that reason to attack anywhere and everywhere.

    • Bantu-speaking peoples: The large-scale migration of Bantu-speakers from west-central Africa into eastern and southern Africa over several millennia led to the establishment of numerous kingdoms (like Mapungubwe and Great Zimbabwe) and the displacement or assimilation of the indigenous San and Khoikhoi populations.
    • Mali Empire: This powerful West African empire, at its height in the 14th century, controlled over 400 cities and a vast territory (larger than Western Europe), ruling over diverse peoples through a system that included appointed governors.

      • Ashanti Empire and Kingdom of Dahomey: In West Africa, these kingdoms grew powerful through military expansion and control of trade networks, which included the capture and sale of people into the trans-Atlantic and trans-Saharan slave trades, thereby asserting dominance over surrounding peoples.


      • Zulu Kingdom: Under Shaka's leadership in the early 19th century, the Zulu forcibly consolidated several smaller Nguni groups into a formidable state through military campaigns and political reorganization in Southern Africa.

    These examples demonstrate that territorial expansion and the subjugation of neighboring groups were common features of state formation in pre-colonial Africa, similar to the processes that built empires in other parts of the world throughout history.

    With Greenland, I'm not a fan of it. Let Greenlanders be independent and make deals with the Danish government to keep Russia and China out. Otherwise more fracking to melt the ice caps isn't going to be worth it.

    It makes too much sense for all parties involved for the US to purchase Greenland. It is inevitable.
