Totally on brand. It will be funny one day for a Native American to say this to one of these racists.
Well, if we are going to be anal about this, the “native american” is simply descended from people who immigrated a lot earlier. No human is truly native to the americas. All immigrants.
This stupid fuck of a senator needs to go back to where he came from (sorry Illinois, you can’t just dump your garbage in other states like that)
“Idaho senator born in another state tells Native American congressional candidate from a tribe native to the state to “go back where you came from.”
It would have been a much wordier headline but relays a lot more pertinent information.
Their ideology is a cancer
An ideology of “I won’t listen to you because I’m motivated to oppress everyone else for my own gain,” is, most definitely, going to make the world worse. And this will be entirely on purpose, and no one will apologise.
Which state someone is from isn’t what people care about.
It isn’t, but to be fair, it absolutely does add an additional layer of irony that they weren’t even born there.
“where you come from doesn’t matter” says someguy3 in defense of a racist colonist telling someone to go back where they came from while actively living on their land.
The irony has been palpable for over a century. Bizarre that we still accept it as a society
That’s not the irony.
The irony is people flying the flag of violent traitors who fought a bloody war against this country while screaming that anybody who doesn’t like it here should get out.
We desperately needed to let them leave back then, the country would be so much better.
But hey, at least we changed a few sports team names. So that’s something, right?
Yeah, about that…
Allegedly*
The other politicians there have confirmed that it happened.
