Ooooh, oooh, please don't tell me is AI, I'm dreaming right now.

Edit: Talking about the native, not Elmo of course.

Have you never seen that clip before? Go on YouTube, search nazi elon salute, and pick a trusted news org

Oh its real, and the full clip is worse (he turns around and does it again)

[-] TrojanRoomCoffeePot@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago

It's true, I even found a clip from some black dude on the second story beside the stage. Full, clear view, they were pretty fucking surprised too, I'll tell you.

i wish the rock i'm living under was as impenetrable as yours 😄

[-] PotatoLibre@feddit.it 1 points 1 month ago

What's the problem witg my answer?

[-] BipolarSilence@lemmy.cafe 7 points 1 month ago

Muskrat did Nazi salute in public. It's not AI and, uh, even I'm kinda suprised you don't know it?

[-] PotatoLibre@feddit.it 2 points 1 month ago

What has Musk to do with a native american?

[-] BipolarSilence@lemmy.cafe 2 points 1 month ago

Oops idk about that part then

[-] PotatoLibre@feddit.it 2 points 1 month ago

Got it, I answered a commment with a video of Musk, instead of the op one.

It make it seems like I'm happy for Musk's salute! 🤦

[-] fubbernuckin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago

I don't think you watched the clip.

[-] fubbernuckin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

That person sent a clip of Elon musk doing the nazi salute with their comment. You responded with "please don't let this be ai"

[-] PotatoLibre@feddit.it 1 points 1 month ago

What I see is a native american scalping a nazi muppet, can't see what Musk has to do with it

[-] Azal@pawb.social 36 points 1 month ago

I love seeing historic pictures like this that speaks of different times and in no way shape or form have any relation to what's happening nowadays so that we can look at how much further we have progressed from the past.

[-] TheOakTree@lemmy.zip 10 points 1 month ago

progressed from the past

And in some ways, regressed.

[-] Azal@pawb.social 22 points 1 month ago

Kinda the joke I was going for there, yes.

this is very confusing

is this from a movie? is he an actor getting paid to do that?

why?

also, Crash Course is releasing a new series focusing on Native American History

[-] Chozo@fedia.io 39 points 1 month ago

why?

If somebody asks me for nazi scalps, I'm not asking why. But I'm definitely getting him some nazi scalps.

that's what Russian soldiers do today. Putin asked for nazi "scalps".

always ask why!

IDK but all the men in my family from this generation wanted to go kill Nazis. Funny thing was that the military wouldn't let them. All of them were assigned to places in Washington State.

Imagine a bunch of Oglala men (that guy in the picture could very well be Lakota) being unable to fight in a war.... The Oglala were the greatest warriors in the American Indian wars

[-] mystixa@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

At a guess Id say its probably for a rodeo. Can see stands in the background.

[-] GlassHalfHopeful@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 month ago

Exactly my thought. WTH?

[-] Keeponstalin@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago
[-] merde@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

downloaded. will take a look

thanks

[-] merde@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

watched the first hour and the last 20 minutes.

The presenter in the CrashCourse series says "we/us" when talking about native americans while the historian here talks, though masterfully and with compassion, about "them".

it also helps to have 12 minute chapters instead of one big 150 minutes, that sadly keeps repeating the same things that happened over and over again to tribes :(

[-] Keeponstalin@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I love crash course too, they both have their pros can cons with their formatting (and scope)

I think Knowing Better is fantastic for a deep dive, especially on the topics of American History he covers. The chronological framework he has is great to understand the different periods of the removal, and how the methods shift over the decades, before tying it back to the present day issues.

His video on the history of slavery in America is also phenomenal

[-] Flagg76@lemmy.world 25 points 1 month ago

If only the native Americans had a more successful immigration policy...

[-] MummifiedClient5000@feddit.dk 22 points 1 month ago

Today snowflake conservatives would try to cancel him.

[-] TrojanRoomCoffeePot@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

F-to-the-fucking Hell yes.

[-] kSPvhmTOlwvMd7Y7E@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago
[-] Plurrbear@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Hell yes!!!! America did Natives so dirty it’s embarrassing!
