3. I seriously doubt it's just you! "Experts" have a very long way to go to get to the truth.

They've been unable or unwilling to acknowledge the responsibility the invading Europeans had in destroying so much of the humanity already living in the "New World" as well as as much evidence of their culture as possible, to make it appear this really was not a vast crime against humanity when they slaughtered almost all the population from the north to the southern tip of South America, and destroyed their books, homes, crops, etc. etc., etc., pretending they were all nearly idiots, pathetic "savages" no one had to pity when they got massacred, and their families slaughtered, then treated like trash right up to this very minute. They definitely got the full treatment. The invaders had to dehumanize them in order to avoid admitting guilt for abusing them so profoundly and stealing their lives, and their world.

Once they give up their snotty racism, they might be more capable of seriously taking on the challenge of learning how advanced the ancestors of the survivors in today's Americas really were!
