Im just playing devils advocate here, but a response to that would be "at least we didn't make each other change the way we live".

Indigenous means native
Surely you’ve heard of Native Americans
It's my holiday and I didn't get any gifts.

Shouldn't this be the United States of Columbus? Give the man his credit.

Do you think modern humans were native to the americas.?
No, the “Native Americans” killed the natives here

According to the definition, you are the one that doesn’t get it.

So freaking winey. If they want to celebrate indigenous peoples day instead of Colombus day, why do you care?

So they originated in a land they themselves named America???
Columbus and explorers that followed soon after gave both the continents the name America.

Perhaps another hominid subgroup like the Neanderthals. Perhaps the descendants of another tribe that arrived earlier.

For decades scientists thought the first Americans were Asian big-game hunters who tracked mammoths and other large prey eastward across a now submerged landmass known as Beringia that joined northern Asia to Alaska. Arriving in the Americas some 13,000 years ago, these colonists were said to have journeyed rapidly overland along an ice-free corridor that stretched from the Yukon to southern Alberta, leaving behind their distinctive stone tools across what is now the contiguous U.S. Archaeologists called these hunters the Clovis people,
quote:
Over the past decade or so this Clovis First model has come under sharp attack as a result of new discoveries. In southern Chile, at a site known as Monte Verde, archaeologist Thomas D. Dillehay, now at Vanderbilt University, and his colleagues found traces of early Americans who slept in hide-covered tents and dined on seafood and a wild variety of potato 14,600 years ago, long before the appearance of Clovis hunters. Intrigued by the findings, some scientists began looking for similar evidence in North America. They found it: in Paisley Five Mile Point Caves in Oregon, for example, a team uncovered 14,400-year-old human feces flecked with seeds from desert parsley and other plants—not the kinds of comestibles that advocates of the big-game hunters scenario expected to find on the menu.
quote:
Now, along Buttermilk Creek, Waters and his team have made one of the most important finds yet: a mother lode of stone tools dating back a stunning 15,500 years ago. In all, the team has excavated more than 19,000 pre-Clovis artifacts—from small blades bearing tiny wear marks from cutting bone to a polished chunk of hematite, an iron mineral commonly used in the Paleolithic world for making a red pigment.
quote:
This evidence confirmed what most archaeologists suspected about the location of this homeland. It also strongly suggested that the timing proposed in the Clovis First scenario was wrong. Geneticists now calculate, based on mutation rates in human DNA, that the ancestors of the Native Americans parted from their kin in their East Asian homeland sometime between 25,000 and 15,000 years ago—a difficult time for a great northern migration. Huge glaciers capped the mountain valleys of northeastern Asia, at the same time massive ice sheets mantled most of Canada, New England and several northern states. Indeed, reconstructions of past climate based on data preserved in ice cores from Greenland and on measurements of past global sea levels show that these ice sheets reached their maximum extent in the last glacial period between at least 22,000 and 19,000 years ago.
Regardless, claiming permanent ownership because “we got here first” is 1, false and 2, dumb.
You only truly own what you can keep. Ancient law.

They set up Jets vs America’s Team on 9/11 a few years ago.

That would be Amerigo Vespucci, who realized they weren’t in Asia.
