    Reading "Peoples History of the United States" by Howard Zinn and you realize America has always been a country runned by pieces of shit.

    I also highly suggest Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz - An indigenous people's history of the US.

    That and Sakai - Settlers, would probably make the overall 3 best comprehensive US history textbooks.

    Columbo my love

    ACAB should always come with a single exception: Columbo.

    You have to kinda suspend your disbelief a little bit when watching the show, especially since its based in Los Angeles, in reality one of the most corrupt and racist police forces on the planet. IRL they would never go after rich socialites in the way Columbo does.

    Luckily in the show there's barely any presence from his higher ups, you get the feeling that they just let this magic murder-solving troll do his thing and never interfere.

    Yep, the Dutch, who lived in peace with the natives for ages. But then the Brits, decending mainly from the bloodthirsty Vikings of course had to fuck everyting up. That's why yall speak English and have a total moron as a leader.
