what were these trees used for?
they were used to build massive hydraulic mining equipment which was used to destroy mountains in the search for gold
Yep. Just like all the buffalo hide pelts turned into machine belts. All that is sacred is profaned, all that is solid melts into air.
Hey! Some of that buffalo was killed en masse and piled high to rid the native people of their livelihoods.
So grotesque to the point they would kill the buffalo, take the hides and tongue, and leave the corpses to rot in the sun.
These poachers were often protected by the military, and received permission to lodge at military outposts.
Upwards of 50 million buffalo were living across the plains region, diminished to roughly 1000 after 20 years.
Rivers of lead poured into molds to cast the bullets just to kill all those animals. The scale of what happened in the Americas will never cease to chill me.
And cedar shake siding and grape vine stakes
I just wanna point out that white people did exactly that, they're called Evangelicals
Catholics eat and drink their God
Tbf he consented
It was his gaw damn idea
Not possible, money is the one true god.
This really should be an emoji
God money's not looking for the cure
God money's not concerned about the sick among the pure
God money, let's go dancing on the backs of the bruised
God money's not one to choose
But their god is money.
US seems to be doing a pretty good job of cutting down the dollar
White Christians have been cutting down old growth trees since before Charlemagne invaded Saxony.
Will God forgive us?
A lot of these guys were 
too (read Settlers)
They chopped down the Mesquite in the bosque around Albuquerque too.
They weren't too kind to us gays either but that's kind of a whole other discussion.
Unlike cutting down trees, though, cutting down white people's god is objectively good
The way some people can destroy a tree without even thinking about it feels me with so much rage and sadness.
Some of those trees were older than the xtian god.
Is that a hypothetical?
