    I've always thought "Space_Time" was simply a tool of the mods to post stories to generate conversation. I can't recall him (or her) actually taking part in any.

    Very interesting theory. I am now curious to look more into this idea, myself, even if I will require a good bit of convincing, of its truth. Perhaps @Space_Time would like to weigh-in?

    No, I'm a real person and not a mod. I let the links I post speak for me.

    Tribal warfare tends to be total war. For instance: the Iroquois carried out a long successful ethnic cleansing campaign against the Hurons.

    "Heraclitus made the curious observation that Nature loves to hide, History too, loves to hide. The closer you look at the land, the more it conceals, and so the past becomes an unlikely, semi-mythical, at times unintelligible place. Only shadows and erasures and faint prints remain of the life that this land's first inhabitants knew."
    Kevin Honold, A Brief History of the Huron, P. 241. The Hudson Review, VOLUME LXXII NUMBER 2 SUMMER 2019, 10/15/2019.

    So learn from it? Meaning don't take over an entire foreign nation?

    K that is for the hot tip.

    This could be a good compromise:

    Unless everyone here is prepared to pay reparations before leaving back to their countries of origin...you can stop with your false virtue

    FOREIGN COLLUSION: NFL Marks Taiwan as Part of China.

    “The map, which introduced markets for 18 NFL teams in eight countries, shows Taiwan unlabeled and colored in as part of China. The erasure of Taiwan comes two months after President Xi Jinping gave a speech in October calling for the “reunification” of the island nation with China, whether in a ‘peaceful manner’ or by ‘firm will.'”

    "Out: Standing for the national anthem.
    In: Bending the knee for the CCP."

    How does the Woke get in bed with modern day slavers?
