   No, seriously tho, you ever wonder why the 'French Indian War" is covered in a single afternoon in your history class and never mentioned again?

   Cause the ACTUAL reasons for the American revolution, were revealed in that war.

   America was (and is) a business, and did not care whether or not Britain's alliances made genocidal land theft against those allies, politically uncomfortable. And Britain didn't like it that these shit tier businessmen were clapping back at the empire, so they started fucking with the colonies, and eventually you end up at "The American Revolution."

     @AnarchoNinaWrites for all the hand wringing about how libertarians just want to be minor feudal lords profiting off indentured servitude like The Governor from Walking Dead, that's basically how America was in some pockets especially toward the beginning

     @AnarchoNinaWrites absolutely, the history of America is essentially smugglers, slavers, capitalists, religious extremists, and criminals or sociopaths coming over here to try and make it rich (or at least avoid interacting with the society they left, or upon court order and threat of death for their crimes) so you've got a continent full of the worst misfits and guess what they go off and kill whoever they want, causing major problems for everyone else (and genocide)
