Is that how it worked when the land and resources were stolen from The
Native Americans? And then killing them because they resisted? Was it
a broken world view that caused all that violence?


Absolutely. The stealing was wrong in the first place. Their
response was predictable in the face of it. Attempting to exterminate
them was the evil outcome of an evil starting point. OTOH, it's not as
if they Amer-Indians lived in peace amongst themselves prior to
arrival of the Europeans. Tribalism and theft have pretty much
always added up to violence.

You don't get durably good results from initially bad premises.
