& thurs., 30 nov., 2017: post-angstgiving standing rock dakota & navajo & yup´ik sobriquets, iv.: give us This Day our Daily Curse


DAKOTA:  Wasicu...  
NAVAJO:   Belliganna  ‡‡
YUP´IK (INUIT):  Qussak  ‡‡‡

 ‡ )  Lit.,  “[One who] takes the fat    i.e.,  selfish bastard;  Dakota term for the invading whitey greed-head peoples ;
‡‡)  Navajo term for the invading whitey people,  probably corruption of Spanish “Americano” ;
‡‡‡)  Lit., “Cassock    Yup´ik  (Inuit)  term for the Russian invaders...
NOTE: As for the orig. New England Thanksgiving feast being a coming together & celebration of mutual aid between the Pequot Nation’s peoples & the Pilgrims  (many of whose leaders were military veterans of Europe’s 30 yrs wars,  & other adventures),  the first Thanksgiving feast in 1637 was hosted by Governor Winthrop of Massachusetts to honor a militia who had just slaughtered approximately 700 Pequot Nation’s men, women & children.  (Others were enslaved, some taken to Europe for the entertainment fo various royal courts.)  We have been unable to find any terms of endearment for these genocidal motherless fucks, these “Puritans” — & welcome any lexicographic or linguistic references.
& in 2016 during a very freezing angstgiving week the whole world watches (minus the USA itself, as this is getting little US media coverage) as mercenaries aim water cannons at first nation protesters on a sovereign native american reservation.
