The Sioux are no longer considered Americans

Linda Hughes88 said:They're filming a new Western movie, oh my goddddddddddd!!!

Short version: "Osage bin Tatanka, that infamous Native American terrorist, hacks into the main mainframe at a nuclear base out in South Dakota. He leaves a message. The President gets the message, sure, but nobody can actually read it because apparently, absolutely no one understands the Sioux language anymore. It leads to this total disaster scenario where the smart, brave, righteous white Chief comes out on top, while those proud Native Americans get wiped out just because they were stupid enough to be so damn prideful. Buy L'oreal face cream, only $9.99 a tub—call this number before the movie ends for a discount"

And you know what? Clinton will probably stand there praising how "democratic" the whole operation was while expressing his deepest, most heartfelt regrets over the tiny, practically non-existent amount of collateral damage—you know, the 95% of people who didn't make it.🤣

Cut it out. Things were going just fine for Native Americans for the whole time those Europeans were around. 😂 🤣 ☕ They didn't kill them. They didn't rape their women. They didn't seize their land by force. And worst of all? They never forced them out. People actually wanted to be relocated against their will, and they were moved to other territories by force. 🤷 They can never be the villains in their own story. They’ll never admit to a single dirty massacre, and don't even get me started on the genocide. So what's their problem now? Why are they suddenly whining? 🙄 😢

At the end of the day, we're talking about democracy here. Personally, I’m all for supervised independence—maybe once spring rolls around and everything starts blooming again.

Yeah, sure, let's just keep asking for "more, more." We've got the whole Z4 plan ready to go where everything is perfectly laid out, right?

And hey, maybe we can borrow a few tricks from what happened in Mexico. I hear they developed some real "expert" negotiation tactics over there. You know, the kind where everyone just talks past each other until nobody knows what's going on. "It's like two blind men trying to play chess in a dark room."

Apparently, the main crisis erupted because schools stopped serving them those massive 8-ounce ice cream treats at snack time and switched to the tiny 5-ounce ones instead. 🤷

Talk about a total violation of their human rights and minority protections. I mean, I wouldn't know about the Pedersons.

The kind of grassroots movement you saw during the velvet revolution could totally work for the Sioux Republic or even the Sioux Nation projects too.
I'm a little confused about the Z4 thing, though—who exactly counts as the minority here?
Also, is there any way to actually make some cash off this? Like, if we declare an arms embargo, prices would skyrocket overnight!

Sea, sea... man, those white Americans will be out there handing out yogurt immediately. The only issue is the prep work—you gotta have the low-fat ones, then the 0.9%, then the full-fat, then the soy-based ones, then fruit flavors, then kefir, then ABC cultures... god, this consumerism is just exhausting. You can't even pull off a Velvet Revolution without someone starting a freaking war over their right to choose their flavor profile.🙄

I don't really get the Z4 thing, who is actually considered the minority here?

Common sense.

Is there any way to make some money off this? Like, we declare an arms embargo and suddenly prices double overnight.

I'm not so sure America is going to be exporting bows and arrows, because honestly, I don't think the Sioux will have much else to offer beyond that. And damn, it wouldn't be fair if they won this time. They got handed guns once in their lives, went ahead and beat the Americans at Little Bighorn, and ever since then, nobody's been giving them anything more than slingshots. For sure, for sure.😬

An embargo on gunpowder? 😁

Oh, please. Alcohol, cocaine, and syphilis—those will be delivered by Americans themselves in massive quantities, basically acting like free brotherly aid, so don't you worry about that. There isn't much we can even attempt to smuggle in ourselves at this point. 😵

So, if I'm following this correctly, they're splitting off but still keeping those trade deals strictly under the table. This sounds incredibly familiar. Where on earth have I heard a story like this before?

I’ve got a gut feeling we’re about to see some serious oil smuggling heading straight toward Siouxland. 😬

So, I actually have my CDL for driving semi-trucks with trailers. Do you think that's enough to get a little side business running?

Native Americans aren't recognized as a sovereign nation, just as tribes. And since a tribe can't technically found a state, I might be misremembering something I read about them. As for how the US government treated them, you only have to look at the 19th century, when the government and one specific tribe signed their sixth relocation agreement. They had already broken five previous treaties, and the sixth time was just another forced move... Their chief famously remarked that they might as well live in wagons; it would be easier.😂 ...
