native americans do not have a central united native american community and certainly are not a single nation, nor are they facing any threat of elimination; you're the one that's confused here. nobody considers any two of the nahuatl, the quechua, the guaraní, and the mapuche to be the same nation, nor did the american indian movement ever make any serious effort to include any of them

it's not a question of semantics but one of ontology

you remind me of an arabic taxi driver i had once who tried to convert me to islam on the assumption that i was christian, just because i'm white

I'm a white American. Have studied Native American history fairly extensively and spend a lot time around natives.

pretty sure the taxi driver had spent a lot of time around christians too, but apparently you have no idea why the official name of bolivia is 'the plurinational state of bolivia'
