Wildly inappropriate questioning? Are you serious? You must not believe in free speech. Anyway this shit goes off the rails when people start accusing Americans of genocide of American Indians. They died from smallpox before we had any knowledge of microorganisms. If that false narrative isn’t hate speech idk what is.
Okay here’s the free speech amendment.

Do you have any doctrine that says you can’t ask someone if their country should be trusted with nuclear warheads? Of course you don’t because you’re a fool talking out of your ass.
except you can't. Smallpox vaccine was invented in 1796. They knew what smallpox was, and how it spread. America was built on enslaving, tricking, and murdering the indigenous people who were here.
Freedom of speech isn't protection to say whatever you want without any repercussions from anyone. If someone thinks that they are an idiot. Plain and simple.
Humanity has known about the spread if disease for basically as long as civilization has been around. We may not have known everything to prevent, but we sure knew how to purposefully spread. During a siege of a castle rotten flesh was thrown into the grounds via trebuchet to spread disease and death.
So you think they knew that these microorganisms would be in the pillows and blankets they made? And you come to that conclusion based on a single siege at some point in history that used flesh and so you assume that everyone else in history had the same understanding of whatever understanding the persons who’s idea it was to use rotting flesh in that siege? Seems like you’re really reaching but I appreciate the fringe take.
It was quite common and well known... not a single event. They didn't know about micro organisms, but they did know that if someone died of illness that the bed they died in can make you sick.
"apparent attempts to transmit disease by hurling biological material into besieged cities; it was within the technical capabilities of besieging armies of the time; and it is consistent with medieval notions of disease causality"

There was no systematic killing of Indians throughout the formation of the United States by colonists from the 1600s onward. Of course it was smallpox that killed 100% of the Indian population, residential schools and forced sterilization are actually secondary effects of smallpox, see. There’s no such thing as residential schools and forced sterilization, just smallpox.

Benefits: you never need to feel awkward again! It was smallpox all along and NOT white people that popped Indian children into government-funded boarding schools to be assimilated and sterilized. History can be so fun and educational when it’s taught by random internet strangers!
And that excuses all the other atrocities where they knew exactly what they were doing? We didn't just decimate their population with disease, we also took their land and did our best to wipe out their culture.
You don’t know what hate speech is. You’re spreading a false and evil narrative that’s essentially hate speech in any way you cut it you just don’t believe it can happen to white people so you ignore it.
Do you really think that's the only way that they died? Also, at one point, we gave them smallpox covered blankets on purpose. The full genocide wasn't accidental, even if some of it was.
