This is a myth in the same sense as the original myth it supposedly corrects.

And oddly it doesn't really contradict the original, it justs tacks on some aspersions against the pilgrims and adds some hopeful qualifiers (maybe the Indians that showed up weren't actually invited, we don't know for sure!).

You don't think an advocate for the pilgrims could play tit-for-tat and list some barbarities committed by natives?
