Irony of ironies to me. Jenny. Native North American People with their respect cooperation, and reciprocity with the land and the biosphere regularly labeled "savages" by the white Europeans, the actual and obvious savages who raped their women and butchered their children for being brown and speaking the wrong language.

There is a beautiful place in Sri Lanka (Katharagama) a Pilgrimage site for many religions. Hindus/Christians/Buddhists/Tamils come here for 3/4 days of the year. There is NO fighting BUT sharing food and love. One can walk a few steps from a Buddhist Temple to a Hindu Temple then the Mosques as well. IT is MIND blowing. The 'savages' that come here come from the North south East and West. Many on foot for days.

Many would say never stopped. The wealthy seem to be in a murder frenzy in order to regain control of profits similar to pre WW1/2. Creative Destruction Joseph Schumpeter. Burn it all down to buy it back at 10%.
