It did not hit the continent all at once. Disease spread in colonized areas. Disease spread west, slowly, with colonization (at least in north america)

it depends on what area you're talking about. Taking the far north as an example, the Hudon Bay Company was critical in establishing the dependence of native people in the sub arctic on the European fur market. It's not as simple as saying disease and guns. In the far north, native people were simply overwhelmed by the amount of European settlers. Many native people also became fervent Christians, because they thought the European god was protecting them from disease. You say native people were "unbounded by limited literate ideas." This obscures the truth. Native people in the far north are intimately tied to the land, economically and spiritually. Inuit and Cree have their own cultures, spirituality, etc. In all honesty, you seem to be repeating the famous Noble Savage myth, in it's own cringy anarchist incarnation

if you want to be polyamorous, why not date someone who wants the same thing. Lying to someone who assumes the relationship is monogamous, just because you want them to maintain feelings for you, is pretty exploitative. This article is from 20 years ago, and was clearly written by a man.

speaking as a queer person, it's not cool. Not only is it alienating to all kinds of straight anarchists, it is also possibly dangerous. I'm not sure why you think making fun of straight people is so cool.

sexuality is unconsciously determined by genetic and environmental factors.

listen, it's not biological, but it's also not a choice. there is a complex web of cultural, genetic, environmental, and biological factors which endow someone with a specific orientation or gender identity. These things can not be consciously chosen, and they exist outside the realm of politics.

Is this what passes for anarchism in Europe? What kind of stupid bullshit is this.
