      You’re right, every state should be forced to pay what they owe and the federal government didn’t give enough and should pay more.

      But you’re objectively wrong that no one talks about reparations for Natives, because it literally happened whereas Black people have still gotten nothing. It’s very obvious that you just want to pit people against each other so no one gets anything.

      It’s the same shit as what happened to Affirmative Action. By using a lawsuit to pit Asian students against other minorities they were able to get it struck down, so now no one gets anything.

        Natives have still gotten nothing from the state of California, which is what we’re talking about, not the federal government. Although it would be nice if the feds were talking about this as well.
