This is actually a very clever sketch on so many levels relating to mass migration and its impact on the previous culture. I would say one of their best.

I thought building a wall was nuts, but this sketch brought up valid points. Europeans did wipe out indigenous people with disease, and stole their land. They didn’t have the technology and resources to build a wall then, but we do now. Maybe it’s not so crazy after all.😔 The Fox was right about the blankets too.🤔 Who would’ve thought SNL would make the most valid arguments for building the wall?😂 I’m in.¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #BuildTheWall
I think this was poking fun at people who now want to build a wall after their ancestors were the ones who wrecked someone else's society. We have to find a way to get beyond walls.
It was the 17th century 12 year olds where taking on adult responsibilities and even getting married at that age the idea of a carefree childhood or teenage years didn't exist

@@sopranosd "...And they did. Smallpox blankets were intentionally traded with Natives to kill them..." Fake history. One recorded instance and that apparently did not have the intended, and highly desirable, effect. Other methods were more effective, such as direct killing and burning of corn crops.
Um, yeah, like how STARSHIP TROOPERS accidentally conveys anti-fascist messaging, and ANIMAL FARM just lucked into being unintentionally congruent with 1917's Russian Revolution and the Soviet Union's Stalinist era. An SNL writer probably fell asleep and their head hit the keyboard, resulting in the script for this sketch. What are the odds? Such staggering randomness boggles the mind.

He spooned fed the Trump supporter narrative back to those that wear MAGA bibs. It was comically delivered, so as to not offend peoples sensibilities.
Nobody digests corn, corn has no nutritional value. All corn is good for is cleaning your digestive track. You can chew it as much as possible and it will never break down and that's what is supposed to happen so when you swallow it, it rubs against the walls of your digestive track with the purpose of cleaning it...
justbusiness01 Actually, with the way tribal politics were until the Dawes roll, a lot of Black and White people were acculturated and accepted as “Native” through slavery and defection. I have an ancestor who went through a Native American orphanage to be placed with a White family after being forcibly taken from a mother and the general symptoms of “boarding school” show up in our history.
Exactly, @Igor Schmidlapp; Smith never saw her through a lover's eyes the way Disney would have us believe. Then again, I think Disney was (at least partly) justified in the mythology created for their 1995 film. The plotline addressed prejudice, after all, and the villain exemplified the imperialist mindset we see from studying history... Besides, the happy ending was only implied to be a SHORT-term consequence of two cultures meeting, let alone within a *fictional* setting!!
@gerard dearie You're kinda right.... i guess... Spaniards are not Hispanic, we do not care how the American census labels us, that's actually insulting. But most Americans can't grasp the concept of white people in central or south America. Argentina is 94% Caucasian.
@@SlevinCCX oddly enough, the US Census doesn't seem to give AF about *your* opinion, either! The U.S. Census Bureau defines the ethnonym Hispanic or Latino to refer to "a person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin regardless of race" and states that Hispanics or Latinos can be of any race, any ancestry, any ethnicity.
As a Cree First Nation Native Indian I commend Lorne Michaels and the amazing cast members of SNL for always keeping the material tasteful as well as acknowledging the idiotic nature we’re dealing with today. Kudos! ✌🏼
Build a space station, THEN call us idiots for wanting to be among our own, people we're on the same page with, people who make us laugh, who we can relate to, people we're comfortable around.
The idiotic nature we're dealing with today? Not wanting immigrants? Uhhhh...did you not notice that the grandpa was right about everything? The Whites did take over, bring disease, and kill everyone.
“White people?” 🤣 “Fox”, “lying peacock!” This is too much ☺️ the writing is perfect for this episode. I wish it was always this good. Lorne said that we always prefer the cast members when we were in high school. I just think Will is still the GOAT.
FatherTime89 some thing you racist Trump supporters don’t understand is that there’s a difference between immigrants and illegal immigrants. Immigrants built this country so you not wanting to let them in because if their skin color is beyond me. Illegal immigrants however as Obama has once said need to come in the legal way. So the answer isn’t banning all immigrants like you’re saying it’s making path to citizenship easier so everyone can come here and won’t have to result to coming in undocumented
yeah, glad they broke the skit off when they did, because the implication of him using Trumpian rhetoric as one of the original Americans is that Trump and the far right are actually.... right? That made it more than a little uncomfortable.
@@layne721 Uncomfortable because it's TRUE, lol. The natives SHOULD have built a wall, if they could have. Controlled immigration. Would have saved god knows how many Indian lives from European germs and conquest. That feeling you're feeling is called cognitive dissonance.

This sketch should get an Emmy. ESPECIALLY for writing.
They have, at least once, I'm quite sure
@@tajicbladeofthelegion5474 You a seer?
I thought building a wall was nuts, but this sketch brought up valid points. Europeans did wipe out indigenous people with disease, and stole their land. They didn’t have the technology and resources to build a wall then, but we do now. Maybe it’s not so crazy after all.😔 The Fox was right about the blankets too.🤔 Who would’ve thought SNL would make the most valid arguments for building the wall?😂 I’m in.¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #BuildTheWall
I think this was poking fun at people who now want to build a wall after their ancestors were the ones who wrecked someone else's society. We have to find a way to get beyond walls.
Reminded me of Steve Martin humor.
"Hi folks, I'm Will Ferrell."
😅😂🤣🤣🤣
Like a family outro
grandpa's clothes are made out of Human Rights Campaign stickers
2500 comments as of now and you were the first one to notice the HRC patches Ferrell is ironically wearing
That's never caught that...
Hahaha good eye!
@@jeffjones6951 lol I kept on looking at the HRC "stickers", I have about a dozen of those stickers.
Very distracting. I have one on my car and it’s the first thing I noticed.
I love how they actual refer to real history in this,even tho Pocahontas’s mother died during childbirth its still a very good skit
I mean that’s the least of it but yeah. It’s hilarious.
Imagine if Native Americans built a wall around America's borders before immigrants came over
It would have been 3 feet tall, made of sticks
@@thebystander1636 I was not ready for this golden response. LMFAO
Will LA is a shithole. I don’t know why people decide to go there
I wouldn't be here because my Great-Grandmother was Sioux and her husband was Irish.
@Juan Carlos Rivera why? Doesnt he have his right to free speech?
"And you do know she's 12, right?" I laughed and cried
Rob Montesclaros but true😂🤣😂🤣😂
Right, sounds like all those Muslims forcing little 9-12 year olds to marry them.
It was the 17th century 12 year olds where taking on adult responsibilities and even getting married at that age the idea of a carefree childhood or teenage years didn't exist
What does the fox say?
Will Ferrell: he says those blankets carry diseases
"Not like that lying peacock you listen to." XD
he knows what’s up
What is he talking about the lying peacock?
And they did. Smallpox blankets were intentionally traded with Natives to kill them.
@@sopranosd "...And they did. Smallpox blankets were intentionally traded with Natives to kill them..."
Fake history. One recorded instance and that apparently did not have the intended, and highly desirable, effect. Other methods were more effective, such as direct killing and burning of corn crops.
Funny thing is...this is truer than even the writers meant it to be.
Um, yeah, like how STARSHIP TROOPERS accidentally conveys anti-fascist messaging, and ANIMAL FARM just lucked into being unintentionally congruent with 1917's Russian Revolution and the Soviet Union's Stalinist era. An SNL writer probably fell asleep and their head hit the keyboard, resulting in the script for this sketch. What are the odds? Such staggering randomness boggles the mind. We're lucky you were in 8H the week before this episode so you can tell us what the authorial intention was and wasn't.

I don't mean to sound like a dick.
I agree with you. It wasn't just an old man's opinion, he was speaking facts. It contrasts the irony of our times, wherein facts get contradicted in order to validate or assert a personal prejudice.
You mean Will Ferrell dressed up as a mock up of a Native American? Ha nah
@@vido9105
What?!
What's wrong with wearing a Halloween custome? :)
Dude, did you even listen to what he was saying. He flipped the script. He was obviously mocking Iron Eyes Cody, the crying 'indian', from the 70's commercial; with historical facts about how European colonizers introduce foreign pathogens that contributed to the genocide of native peoples. He spooned fed the Trump supporter narrative back to those that wear MAGA bibs.
It was comically delivered, so as to not offend peoples sensibilities.
“What is this...2014?”
“One thing that’s most important. None of can digest corn”
😂😂🤣🤣 I’m crying
Is it really that funny, be honest with yourself.
Nobody digests corn, corn has no nutritional value. All corn is good for is cleaning your digestive track. You can chew it as much as possible and it will never break down and that's what is supposed to happen so when you swallow it, it rubs against the walls of your digestive track with the purpose of cleaning it...
justbusiness01 Actually, with the way tribal politics were until the Dawes roll, a lot of Black and White people were acculturated and accepted as “Native” through slavery and defection. I have an ancestor who went through a Native American orphanage to be placed with a White family after being forcibly taken from a mother and the general symptoms of “boarding school” show up in our history.
Allan Vega I’m more German and French than Choctaw, but I still digest it well.
"The fox...He knows what's up" lololol!!!
The wordplay and allegories in this are so clever. Can't believe I've never seen this one air.

I’m not Navajo and this was awesome.
I’m better.

Omg on Twitter some natives are mad about this idk I found this funny. I'm lakota.
Until you remember that european settlers killed 56 million indigenous people by 1600, then it's less funny.

For the record Pocahontas never married John Smith, she married John Rolfe.
@@zachconroy1443 is he 30 too?
@@ronalddavidleindecker3358 no, that was a historical fact.
@Jack Mensah-Bonsu I think *he* was in his early to mid 20's... I'll have to check.
Exactly, @Igor Schmidlapp; Smith never saw her through a lover's eyes the way Disney would have us believe.
Then again, I think Disney was (at least partly) justified in the mythology created for their 1995 film. The plotline addressed prejudice, after all, and the villain exemplified the imperialist mindset we see from studying history... Besides, the happy ending was only implied to be a SHORT-term consequence of two cultures meeting, let alone within a *fictional* setting!!
"White actors playing natives? What is this, 2014?"
Will is the only white guy. Maya is Black white. Fred is Asian/Hispanic.
DRGH DRGH yup, let’s look at these people
@@drghdrgh1140You idiot, he is quoting the skit!
@gerard dearie You're kinda right.... i guess... Spaniards are not Hispanic, we do not care how the American census labels us, that's actually insulting. But most Americans can't grasp the concept of white people in central or south America. Argentina is 94% Caucasian.
@@SlevinCCX oddly enough, the US Census doesn't seem to give AF about *your* opinion, either!
The U.S. Census Bureau defines the ethnonym Hispanic or Latino to refer to "a person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin regardless of race" and states that Hispanics or Latinos can be of any race, any ancestry, any ethnicity.
It’s so hilarious! I watched 10 times & still made me smile every time. Miss Will Farrell who is one of the best comedian.
It's great for three minute skits but not a 90-minute film.
I've heard he prefers "Mr."
that crazy old fox knows what’s up 😂
what does the fox say?
“What is this? 2014?” For some reason that was the line that got me
As a Cree First Nation Native Indian I commend Lorne Michaels and the amazing cast members of SNL for always keeping the material tasteful as well as acknowledging the idiotic nature we’re dealing with today. Kudos! ✌🏼
Build a space station, THEN call us idiots for wanting to be among our own, people we're on the same page with, people who make us laugh, who we can relate to, people we're comfortable around.
The idiotic nature we're dealing with today? Not wanting immigrants? Uhhhh...did you not notice that the grandpa was right about everything? The Whites did take over, bring disease, and kill everyone.
@@thane1448 🤣🤣🤣 you're not the sharpest tool in the shed are you...
This skit proves a point but actually in the opposite direction of the point they're trying to make with a joke they're trying to make
“White people?” 🤣 “Fox”, “lying peacock!” This is too much ☺️ the writing is perfect for this episode. I wish it was always this good. Lorne said that we always prefer the cast members when we were in high school. I just think Will is still the GOAT.
Will would fit in with the all time SNL greats
I agree I never thought SNL would have a skit where FOX was right XD
“The 🦊 he knows what’s up” omg I’m dead 😹😹😹
I’m not sure the fox knows anything now. But the lying peacock is similar. 😂
Best skit in a long time. That fox and peacock joke was golden.

None of us can digest corn 🌽
Corny jokes 😃
Bonding over corn in their turds. What a world.
Well I guess it's better than bonding over a turd.

Hundreds of years down the line maybe. But every other time American xenophobes bitched about immigrants they were wrong.
FatherTime89 some thing you racist Trump supporters don’t understand is that there’s a difference between immigrants and illegal immigrants. Immigrants built this country so you not wanting to let them in because if their skin color is beyond me. Illegal immigrants however as Obama has once said need to come in the legal way. So the answer isn’t banning all immigrants like you’re saying it’s making path to citizenship easier so everyone can come here and won’t have to result to coming in undocumented
Things haven't changed
yeah, glad they broke the skit off when they did, because the implication of him using Trumpian rhetoric as one of the original Americans is that Trump and the far right are actually.... right? That made it more than a little uncomfortable.
@@layne721 Uncomfortable because it's TRUE, lol. The natives SHOULD have built a wall, if they could have. Controlled immigration. Would have saved god knows how many Indian lives from European germs and conquest. That feeling you're feeling is called cognitive dissonance.
The funny part is that the chief was actually... historically... right
He even mentioned smallpox blankets.
I cant believe they didnt want to embrace diversity. What a bunch of racists
