Statues vandalized over Thanksgiving in 'LANDBACK' campaign

While families across the U.S. were celebrating Thanksgiving with scaled-down gatherings or Zoom calls, protesters were toppling historical statues and monuments.

In Washington state, the Spokane Police Department reported that a statue of 16th President Abraham Lincoln was vandalized with red paint, while multiple colonial statues -- including one of George Washington -- were defaced and toppled overnight in Minneapolis.

"No more genocide" and "all colonizers are bastards" were scrawled in red graffiti on the works.

The Pan-Indigenous People’s Liberation (PIPL) network took responsibility for the move and explained in a statement that it was partly in response to a callout for a “national decolonial day of action.“

The American Indian Movement had previously pulled down a statue of explorer Christopher Columbus outside the state capitol.

Portland, Ore., protesters tagged local markets and a monument dedicated to the veterans of the Civil War, Mexican, Spanish and Indian wars with anti-colonialist rhetoric.

The Midwestern hub of Chicago witnessed a similar effort, though protesters ultimately failed to knock down a park statue of President William McKinley on Wednesday.

The words "land back" were painted in multiple cities, referring to the LANDBACK campaign. The indigenous movement aims to develop communities in a sustainable manner, defend American land and fight against White supremacy.

"We must continue to decolonize our minds, communities, and sovereign nations," LANDBACK says in its mission statement. "The decolonization of our communities and people is directly related to our ability to prosper."

"Through the revitalization of our Indigenous ceremonies, culture, languages and life ways we will continue to strengthen our identity, and break free from the oppressive systems that disconnect us from achieving the healing growth and connection to spirit that is integral for us as Indigenous people," they wrote.

I hope that they know how to transition smoothly back into the stone or neolithic age they were living in before we took their land. Hunting and gathering with traditionally-made tools and weapons. Back to the many tribes making constant warfare against each other. They were doing this before evil whitey came along.

Yes, and they - the Native Americans - haven't exactly set the world on fire with their brilliance since then. And not because they're 'disadvantaged' or kept on 'reservations' or whatever - they had, and have, opportunities to go to high school and college just like the rest of us did. Those Millions of us Whities who didn't have a plug nickel, and yet worked our asses off putting ourselves through college, that is, and afterward again worked our asses off for decades, not 'collecting welfare' from the Welfare State. So no excuses for their Underperformance because of 'discrimination' or 'disadvantaged' or 'racism' or whatever crap the Identity Politics Democrats are shoving down the throats of 'minorities' and college idiots today.
