MODERATORS
Land acknowledgements like this one seem to be overtly reactionary, talking like indigenous people "stewarded" the land for colonists to just take over once they got here. This sort of "and then the Indians taught the pilgrims how to grow corn" cutesy bullshit is historical revisionism meant to counter what is actually good about land acknowledgement.
I have no problem with critique of the specifics of the wording of this land acknowledgement, as you can see I listed some of my own.
But if you want to talk about reactionary, the energy of this thread is mostly hurr durr look at these fucking libruls doing a land acknowledgment
