'Ben & Jerry's' say the U.S. was founded on stolen indigenous land, and it's time to give it back

[DigitalDrifter]

You first pal! Ben & Jerry’s headquarters is in South Burlington, Vermont, which was home to the Abenaki tribe before the British colonists came and before America was founded. GIVE IT BACK!!!!

Ben & Jerry’s calls for return of ‘stolen indigenous land’ in July Fourth message​

Ben & Jerry’s called for the return of “stolen indigenous land” in its Fourth of July message, pointing to Mount Rushmore as the place to start.

The ice cream company said in a post on its website that the parades, barbecues and fireworks are displays typical of the holiday can “distract” from the “essential truth” of the birth of the United States — that it was founded by taking land from Indigenous populations.

“This 4th of July, it’s high time we recognize that the US exists on stolen Indigenous land and commit to returning it,” the company tweeted.

The post outlines the history of the land that became Mount Rushmore, which features the likenesses of four presidents — George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln — carved into the mountain.

Those two idiots are annoying

 

[TNHarley]

This land has been "stolen" countless times. So who do we give it back to?
Fuck off, ben and jerrys

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Even it were so, how do you give back Warren or Livingston, Texas, to the Alabama Coushatta?

 

[johngaltshrugged]

I'm surprised Hillbelly isn't all over this demanding we sign everything over to him.

Of course, we all know he'd pawn it all & OD on firewater & dick within a week

Funny how the assholes that keep telling others to give up land, never start with their own. Nobody is stopping them from giving their own land back, yet these fools never seem capable of leading by example.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

I've been boycotting these left-wing looms for years, but it's time to push back harder, and demand they give their own properties back!

They can fuck right off, my ancestors ran the Injuns' off fair and square.

Next time don't show-up to a gun fight with primitive weapons.

Sorry, No take backs

Pretty much.

Until they prove they are serious and give every piece of property the company owns back, that includes Ben and Jerry's owners giving their personal land their homes are on then they can't lecture anyone else.

Lead by example. Give everything back and then you can speak to the rest of us. But until they do, they do not have the right to try and tell me what to do.

Ben and Jerry's is a shit woke company that's always peddling their social justice nonsense more than they do ice creme. Honestly I wish they would go bankrupt. Homemade and Graters is better than their ice cream.

Nonsense. Some of our forefathers stole it fair and square.

This is what I hate about emotional memes based on historical truths, even if the truth is historically inconvenient and traumatic. There is no FUCKING PLAN. Thanks Ben & Jerry's for pointing something out that has been well known for now for more than 4 centuries. So what is plan to give back the land? How do you actually plan on making this happen?

All B&J's is doing is making an emotional point to garner sales. This is no different than politicians who leverage the same tactic to garner votes.

 

[Woodznutz]

GIVE IT BACK!!!!

Another meaningless slogan right up there with,

"END (fill in the blank) NOW!"

It’s like these Leftard businesses that declare themselves nuclear free zones.

It’s all about the feels.
