BACKFIRE! Indigenous Tribe Calls ‘Ben & Jerry’s’ Bluff, Wants Land In Vermont Back Where B&J Is Headquartered

Ben & Jerry’s got creamed for its ‘anti-American’ Fourth of July post, which went into its wayback machine to accuse America on Independence Day of being founded on the genocide of Native Americans.

“This 4th of July, it’s high time we recognize that the US exists on stolen Indigenous land and commit to returning it. Learn more and take action now,” the ice cream company said while linking to a website filled with cherry-picked historical facts that sugarcoat how Native American tribes had their own warlike histories.

Ben & Jerry’s then churned up support for the Land Back movement, which is no less than an irredentalist movement designed to break up the United States into tribal territories based on claims from centuries ago.

“Why are we talking about this? Because on the Fourth of July many people in the US celebrate liberty and independence—our country’s and our own,” they said.

But there was a delicious bit of irony in store for Ben & Jerry’s: Their corporate headquarters itself exists on “stolen” Native American lands.

A Native American tribe that originally controlled the land in Vermont that Ben & Jerry's headquarters is located on wants land returned to them after the company publicly called for "stolen" lands to be returned. https://t.co/QFwSXCivfO
