Wow, truthful and a schooling of another talent acting like a dolt. She needs to stick to singing. Unfortunately the more these Hollywood and Entertainment people let us know where they stand politically, the harder it is for me to separate their movies/music from their person.

Problem is, she indoctrinates all her Gen Z fans by reinforcing what their teachers told them. As a parent , i will share this article with my teen. He/she will likely go on believing their idol. But i have to say this article is very well reasoned, as all this authors articles are.

Interesting that you’re cool with your gender fluid teen.

🤣 that does look funny! I have a boy and girl. I guess I was in a hurry. You reminded me of the time I sent out birth announcements and the photo I chose sort of looked like they were conjoined twins. Omg.

It’s hard to parent!! I guess I grew up liking Ozzy Osborne but that didn’t make me a devil worshipper. I don’t know. 🤷‍♀️

Part of the problem is that accurate history is not taught in public schools any longer. It's all revisionist history with underlying grievance politics that is pushed. Especially in CA where the schools teach about reconquista of the state (and also other parts of the southwestern US), to return land to Mexico. The teachers lead students in parades flying Mexican flags and tell them the US stole the land. I've seen it many times. You cannot debate with these people. They will not listen to facts.

My family has a picture of my grandfather and siblings (and others) on the steps of the one-room schoolhouse they attended. Also in the picture are several Native American kids from the area. All are shoeless and ragged.

The picture is captioned "Equal Opportunity".

Thank you for a very detailed explanation and it truly is appreciated. I get so mad at the hypocrisy that I am unable to give a proper argument to these people besides just saying they are morons. I like your way better 😊

A well written explanation of “ stolen land “ and who owns it rightfully . Just as the native people ( American Indians ) bartered , fought , killed and claimed the property was theirs the European settler did the same . To me the key word has always been “ negotiate “ and that’s what each society did in their era . If Billie Irish really cared about her words she’d. VACATE HER MALIBU HOUSE YESTERDAY !

I learned so much from this post.

I vote we build the southern border wall north on the eastern borders of California, Oregon and Washington all the way to Canada and give it all to Mexico. Minnesota and Michigan can go to Canada.

And we get Alberta, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, NW Territories, and the Yukon.

So bottom line is, when is she packing up and moving to, ??????. Her mansion is on land owned by a tribe of Indians. I think they are planning to ask for it back.

I love the irony of the image of Iron Eyes Cody, who was actually Italian.

Wonderful analysis. Thank you.

Thank you for the wonderful and detailed article on the absurdity of stolen land. And a double thank you for pointing out the rampant hypocrisy and emptiness of Hollywood “celebrities.

"California, she said, is stolen land."

Her single sentence made no reference to California. Then remind us about slogans ...Especially the Orwellian ones ..

Make America Great Again

America First

Drain the Swamp

Stop the Steal

Build the Wall

Lock Her Up

Take Our Country Back

Save America

Fight Like Hell

The irony of using the photo of the Italian gentleman is not missed.

I have rarely seen someone work so hard to intentionally DODGE the point being made.

Amazing work as always Alex!
