“Native Genocide and Ethnic Cleansing” or “Illegal American Expansionist Settler Policy” doesn’t sound as sexy to you as the “Wild West”, does it?
Some perspective:
A million seconds is 11.5 days.
A billion seconds is 31.7 years.
And a trillion seconds is *31,689* years.

The only thing “Wild” about the “Wild West” is the wild genocide of my people and the animal life yall still romanticize on my homeland to this day.
So INCREDIBLY proud of the work we did on this season of Legends of Vox Machina. And my episode premieres TODAY! Don’t miss it!
Only on Prime 🐉
Every “Wild West” movie and trope is as much fantasy as Hogwarts and Middle Earth.
The difference is that its false narrative actively JUSTIFIES and romanticized my people’s genocide.
It glorifies white supremacy.
The great American myth.
