It is rather interesting to me that reservation governments are the greatest proponents of big government and force while simultaneously claiming to be victims of the same.

Or claiming to be sovereign! Which is what the EBCI is so proud of!

They remind me of the British tax havens - your Cayman Islands, British Virgin Islands, Gibraltar, Bermuda, Isle of Man etc - sovereign when it suits them and not sovereign when it suits them. Usually when force or money is involved, in steps the other lot.

On a related note, I am hearing horror stories about indigenous Australians with this. Their tribal governments have far less power (and are even more corrupt apparently), but there has been a high reaction and death rate. More so than whites. Some of them have extremely rare gene patterns due to thousands of years of isolation, and even if the tests were conducted in good faith they would not be picked up on.

Dependence has been pushed on them by our governments for over a century just like we did to other minority groups. They are victims of our governments. With that being said, the victim bears some responsibility to stop allowing themselves to be a victim if possible. If you know you are a victim, you can't continue to claim to be a victim if you do not even make attempts at ending it.

Yes, sir; it is very real - and it was in the print copy of the June 2021 issue of The Friend, despite objections from many, many members.

No one is sovereign who depends on and accepts welfare payments from government.

Since a lot of Reservations shut down tourism and casinos, that's another major income stream gone too.
