The FIRST thing to remember is that there were TWO settlements, Plymouth and Jamestown.
From USHistory.org, hardly a "leftist," "revisionist," "racist," or "political" site:
"The major similarity between the first Jamestown settlers and the first Plymouth settlers was great human suffering.
November was too late to plant crops. Many settlers died of scurvy and malnutrition during that horrible first winter. Of the 102 original Mayflower passengers, only 44 survived. Again like in Jamestown, the kindness of the local Native Americans saved them from a frosty death."
