If that's all you got from that passage, then I don't know what to tell you.
General Remains of 215 children found at former Catholic residential school for natives in Canada

When you call a people "Savages" that tells me what I need to know about the author
You keep getting hung up on that word, and you're completely lost on the context.
Fuck the author and the "Context". You don't call a people "savages" then expect nuance
Miss me with that bullshit bruh
He's not an author, rather the first prime Minister of Canada, and he introduced the idea of residential schools.
If he wrote those words that would make him the author... Thus, Fuck him
If he didn't write those words then fuck whoever the author was
That's what I was saying in the first place!
Now you are confusing me. I thought you said he wasn't the author
then eluded to some deeper, perhaps even artistic, intellectual context?
The founders and prominent landowners made it quite clear what they thought of First Nations and Africans.
Their context is quite clear
I don't find anything intellectually deep or philosophical to ponder about bigotry.
Just another asshole authoring vile statements to me

See your phrasing in your post about 'savages' being written in the declaration of independence, implied to me, that you were taking a contrarian stance against what I posted.
Turns out we are on the same page, and there was something lost in translation.

Lol. The interwebs can be weird like that.
My implication was only to reinforce your post and to give an example of how those same thought ideas
went into the Declaration of Independence and to underline how deeply it is rooted in Western fabric
Would need to see pics first
