So...you have zero opinions about Native Americans.  Just as I thought.

Put you in the patronizingly idealistic and ignorant category.

LMAO, alrighty! What happened to Native Americans in the past was one of the worst crimes, if not THE WORST crime in the history of the US. It was a cruel genocide, I'll be clear about it. A genocide that we often don't talk about and seem to forget since we are too busy talking about the Nazis or racist Southerners. As far as Native American culture and lifestyle is concerned... yes, I think they are FFs but don't expect me to make generalizations. I usually don't rate an entire group of people but individuals.

Emphasis on the bolded.

You are expecting us to judge an entire ethnic/racial group.  People who do that are some of my least favorite people, regardless of their intentions.  As much as I like to bash some of the reactionary impulses of "WASP" culture, for instance, I would never blanketedly label "Anglo Americans" wholescale as "HPs" given that some of them actually contributed a lot towards left wing philosophy (like that Henry George fellow that I wank over whenever a topic on New York City comes up) and it would be an act of intellectual dishonesty as well as very racist for me to make a wholesale label of where those people stand as individuals.

Though to be fair, you also believe in Generational Theory.  Which shall I say, is quite special.
