3. I suspect my Northern European ancestors survived by running away from shit like that.

It's how they landed in America as well.

They were all here in the U.S.A. at the time of the Civil War but there's no family history of it. They were out West on the Pacific side of the nation taking care of their cows.

Oh, they were always kind to the Indians and such, but it never seemed to occur to them that their homesteads had ever belonged to anyone else. Or maybe they just didn't want to think about it too much.

Sort of like people who get all uncomfortable about Critical Race theory today.
