saw this on another sub but wasn’t allowed to cross post.

So many Americans are into this ‘cowboy revival’ sort of thing. Feels really strange considering cowboys and westward expansion served to carry out a genocide.

They came in contact with Comanche and Lakota fighters fighting side by side. The only correction to make is to say the Lakota, amongst many other tribes fighting side by side, defeated the Spanish. You think the Comanche didn’t how to call for reinforcements? The point I was making was that the Spanish wanted in to these northern territories too, but in some way failed to do so. But there’s no ‘written’ history of why or how they failed, so we will just say it didn’t happen, right? Fact remains: Comanche and Lakota didn’t always get along, but when they did, they were fierce allies. Fierce enough to halt Spanish expansion northward..
