Anyone who has watched KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON will understand that US First Nations have encountered the evils of American white supremacism before, and won't put up with it again.
You're witnessing the war dance of the Osage Nation here on their reservation in Oklahoma. Who are they going to war against? Their new enemy is called the Tribe of DOGE.

The one guy part is definitely wrong. There are several deranged a**hats plus their brainwashed supporters.
Some of us are sane enough to be fighting back though. The media isn't giving us much attention, but we are trying.

My mother was somehow super shocked when I finally decided after Thanksgiving that I just couldn't deal with her cult BS anymore. I told her, "You've been saying this could all come to a civil war for years, but somehow it never occurred to you we'd be on opposite sides?"
