To topple Western Civilization they have to maintain records of wrongdoing (by today's standards) of European (white) people over all time and expunge all the rest, especially anything good accomplished by Western Civilization. Once the goal of toppling is achieved, there will be nothing to prevent repeating the whole thing over again. If "they" succeed, the attrition rate will be enormous - world wide.

Teepees would be too advanced for the leftists. The hides they are made out of wouldn't pass PETA muster, either.

If they want to consider any indigenous population of the Americas they have to go back to whom took from who all the way back to the first indigenous population...because that's how the indian's became an indigenous population and those before them and before them and so on.
Everyone, across the world was in the process of civilization and those that were not civilized, those who had no structure to the area they occupied were pushed aside or assimilated into what we call the western civilized world.

That's history...how else could mankind evolve socially, technically, industrially, etc.
I get the impression from these leftest, it would be just fine if we all lived in Teepees and lived horrible lives at the mercy of nature.

Africans -- at least as current science indicates.

Humans have a common source, we are one species. We have evolved over time and, at least until modern transportation has stirred the pot, had variation based on regions, but we remain cross-fertile.

Other than Africa, no one is "native". As I said, the concept is Euro-centric because it' tends to be used for who happened to be in a place when the Europeans arrived. We have maps of American Indian tribes, but those are only what the current situation was at the time of European arrival. The situation in North America was as fluid as the rest of the world with people coming and going and being displaced by others, sometimes peacefully sometimes via violence.

So then Indigenous wouldn't be correct when applied to any ethnic group?

I always counter this with the statement that the term "Indigenous" is a Euro-centric term meaning who ever happened to be in a place when the Europeans arrived.

Alternatively it's biblical based concept that people were created in the places they live. The best current science tells us that we are all immigrants from Africa in a variety of waves.

If these idiots are successful in their endeavors, what will keep us from repeating past mistakes? They want to wipe out any evidence of wrongdoing. Nice try!
