If euro-colonizers stole America from Native Americans, then would it be acceptable if Mexicans, Asians, or Africans were to steal it back?

The "natives" in the Americas were Asians. They came in multiple waves from different parts of Asia and settled into different parts of the Americas. This migration from Asia probably continued until the time the Europeans started doing the same thing, coming from the other direction. There were also the Russians coming from the west, who were basically Asian also. As near as I can tell, there was a near continuous migration to the Americas for the last 30K years, possibly much longer.

The various groups of "natives" and later immigrants constantly "stole" land from each other. That's pretty much the history of humanity in every part of the world and in every era of history and prehistory. What it always boils down to is who is capable of holding the land they have.

Would it be acceptable for any of the hundreds of groups who have occupied the Americas at one time or another to try to take it back? They can try. Although there are a VERY small number of people who never lost it in the first place. There are some very small numbers of people in S America who have some of the purest genes in the world. But the rest of the world, including virtually all of the Americas are a mix, and have been for thousands of years.

The idea of "taking it back" depends entirely on where you draw the line in the history of humans. As soon as one group takes it back, a different group with prior claims takes it from them. Whose claim is valid? Historically whichever group can hold it.

That's never going to happen but no, the only people who it is acceptable for them to steal it back would be Native Americans

I do agree the land was stolen from the Indian Americans but the European white Americans alive today aren’t responsible for that because they weren’t alive at the time massacres and colonisation was happening.

[Opinion Owner]

I think the Mexicans are closely related to the indigenous Americans.
Africans shouldn’t take the USA land in my opinion

[Opinion Owner]

Yes, it may be true all human life started in Africa but the native Indian Americans were living in the USA for much longer than white people and black people so I think the land belongs to them more

Indians stole it from Asians who were here originally. Whoever owns the land now owns it, you can't go back in time and change everything.

About as acceptable as it would be to give China a Bill for the Wuhan flu, allow the Europeans a bill for WW1 & WW2, Mexico a Bill for the cost of the drug war, or Africa a Bill for all the AID we've sent them over the years.

I know this is hard for you to accept and infuriates you. But the United States has been the greatest force for good in the history of mankind. Whether you like it or not, sorry it's true.

This is the difference between us and you. We do what we do for the betterment of all. We don't expect to be paid back. We'd just prefer you say "thank you" and just be on you way.🙂👍💯

It would be acceptable for them to try. "Acceptable" being very generously defined here to include "well, kinda saw that coming." That's human nature unfortunately. It would require them to consider the consequences and be fully prepared for them.

No. Any ethnic that could claim sovereignty from stolen land doesn't have human rights index to be ethical.

The sustainably and quality of life index is uncomparable ethically better in our current United States of America government.

At the same time the current government of today including from conception of 1776 starting promises of unalienable rights should be upheld indefinitely. So if we broke a promise we need to make right it.

No, that doesn't make any sense. It would be native americans stealing it back, not Asians or Africans. And Mexicans would be even worse, since unlike the European settlers of the US, who just moved into territory that was no longer inhabited, the Mexicans actually DID steal land from the still-very-much-alive natives.

There are very few places on earth that were not taken from prior inhabitants normally in a disagreeable way.
The fact that this happens is not agreeable, the fact that people who stand to lose sit by and let it happen or even help just means they are traitors to their people.

Regardless Asians and Mexicans can't "steal land back" because it was never theirs in the first place, they can only colonize and steal it.

[Astarlessnightsky]

No, they are also part of the peoples who stole this land.

If you want to give the continent back, you have to put Mayan, Apache, Mohawk,... and other native American descandents back in charge.

[Lliam]

I'm more in favor of stripping Zionist settlers of all their rights, letting Palestinians take back everything that was stolen and putting the criminals on trial.

[Avicenna]

"Steal it back"? Are you suggesting they would forcibly take it and hand it over to Native Americans out of the goodness of their hearts?

by the way, it was taken in conquest.

[Rangers]

Try it, look how badly Russia is getting whooped by a country with a military 1/4 it's size, we'd spank them all easily if they come here

[Sasahara]

If it were stolen from native Americans, it would not be stolen back by Africans, if Africans were to steal it, it would just be stolen again

[gorydetails]

“Native Americans” came here from other places. They conquered land and stole land from each other. GTFOH with your leftist horse shit.

[DarkLegacy]

I would like to see the USA brought down so yes

[Anonymous]

America has no natives, they were just the original settlers. No race of people originated from America, that's why it's always been an open house.

[007kingifrit]

land cannot be stolen, sovereign entities cannot complain to a higher authority,

land can be won or lost

[Anonymous]

Except now there is legal ownership of the land. They can try, though.

Wait til you hear how Hispanics ended up in the New World
