@RyanSmithWriter The phrasing of that Snopes "fact check" is actually a pretty horrible effort to slyly minimize the crime by claiming "context" makes those facts somehow muddy. The facts as I stated them are disgraceful on their own and "pardoning" other people doesn't make them any less so. — PolitiTweet.org

@hfnabiel @RyanSmithWriter My point was that tweeting that Lincoln also issued those pardons in response to my tweet struck me as a strange response when the overarching and most important context is the genocide and forced displacement, starvation. Seemed an odd thing to zero in on as a response. — PolitiTweet.org
