The colonists, especially frontier colonist, were deeply reactionary and uniquely bloodthirsty for native land in the way Israeli settlers in the west bank are today (when contrasted with their more liberal but just as complicit counterparts in the established urban centers) The British were not by any means good but the Indigenous groups of North America might have stood a better chance. Honestly I fuck with Waweyapiersenwaw (Blue Jacket) and Hokolesqua (Cornstalk) of the Shawnee a lot more than any American or British figure during the revolutionary period. The Haudenosaunee federation was also objectively better than US colonial democracy imo.
