      I mean, I too, find this cringe! But also: is it...bad to start off acknowleding the people that used to occupy the land? Does it hurt anyone to do that?

      I find it extra offensive that a company with ~$140 billion cash-on-hand that it doesn’t know what to do with doesn’t match this with something concrete. Native Americans are poorest communities. It doesn’t even occur to them to attach, say, a billion to this “acknowledgment”.

      It’s just the perfect mixture of faux gesture and insult, almost gratuitously so. They could’ve anticipated all this and shut it all up with money in their couch cushions. Even the PR people don’t think of that, even strategically, because human beings aren’t in this picture.

          anticipated what? 🤔 yes because the VCs (like the guy who tweeted the video) who think you’re a genius are doing that no? Great people supposedly silently helping them unlike the virtue signalers.

          I see these acknowledgements more and more, and I have no idea what to do with it. Should I move and donate equity if I own? Cause the acknowledgement of stolen land seems really hollow if I don't. What are we doing here?

          For what it's worth, acknowledgements are quite common in Canada and recognized as important by indigenous peoples here. I'm not sure you're the right person to be assessing their value.
