If you are a racial minority and, for some reason, you still think Elon Musk and/or Donald Trump have your best interests at heart, you are a moron and should remove yourself from the electoral and public decision-making process.

The modern Americas (all of them, ask Bad Bunny) were created by more than just English and Scottish people. This is one of the dumbest, most incorrect, and easily disprovable racist tropes propagated by one of the dumbest racist people in the public eye.

3) over 60 million indigenous peoples lived in "America" before Europeans arrived
4) The Irish were not considered fully "White" in America until the mid 1800s
5) Italians were not considered fully "White" in America until early 1900s
6) The French & Spanish would like a word.

This is the kind of bullshit many people in Canada internalize, as well. Let's break it down:
1) "America" was created in large part by over 12 million African slaves
2) Over 300,000 Chinese immigrants created the rail and mining industries

This is not my wife. An earlier relationship. But we are still friends. And years ago, I had a plan to publish our correspondence as a travelogue, so she made copies of all the letters I sent to her.
