...#trees and #bushes dont grow in neat little rows.
arrogance does that to suit its needs to its eyes as is pleasing to itself alone...without any thought to what the #plants or its #communities need.
....but lo, if the plant begins to wither, its now the weak and ugly thing to be plucked out discarded and replaced...
and not the #fool who #colonized it against its #nature and needs in the first place?...
"The unlimited support western powers give to #Israel is a continuation of #colonial #violence & #whitesupremacy.
The #US & the #west wield a false moral superiority over #colonized peoples struggling for #liberation."

"#Indigenous knowledge can help make #healthcare more sustainable in the North" and in other regions of #Canada and elsewhere in the #colonized world. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/indigenous-knowledge-can-help-make-health-care-more-sustainable-in-the-north-study-says-1.7422622
Anybody who tries to downplay the #Gaza death toll, or "condemns #hamas / #terrorism / whatever", anyone who puts the feelings and well-being of the #colonizers over the #colonized, is a #colonizer themselves. They're just too much of a coward to own up to the true ugliness of their true position. And so they don't tell you their true position. They cloak it, and abstract it away, and nuance troll, and 'both-sides' the situation, and hope, that you're dumb enough to fall for their bullshit.
The fact that blue-MAGA's hate #Hamas, #Hezbollah, and cheerlead the downfall of Assad's #Syria (a country that is in the process of being carved up and being #colonized as we speak) is the testimony to this fact.
@NMBA This is sickening and it is happening everywhere. Somehow the people working in security in #Canada tend to be brown people who have gotten the message that they need to track and violently attack other brown people, especially #IndigenousPeoples. Is it a case of the #colonized mimicking the #colonizer? The oppressed becoming the oppressor? Or just pure #violence for the sake of violence?
Oh, y'all have probably seen this article about "poor girls from developing countries" lured to work on #military #plants in #russia, haven't you?
The most amusing part is "The social media ads promised the young African women a free plane ticket, money and a faraway adventure in Europe. Just complete a computer game and a 100-word Russian vocabulary test." 🤮
It is absolutely weird that #russia is somewhere considered as #Europe. In principle, it roughly explains the general way of russian behavior for centuries: steal something from the civilization, make a poor copy and try to cell it to nations #colonized by them as their own. And become very nervous, when some nations prefer to join the #civilization directly.
And this part is not amusing: "In addition to dangers from chemicals, the complex itself was hit by a Ukrainian drone in April, injuring at least 12 people. A video it posted on social media showed a Kenyan woman calling the attackers “barbarians” who “wanted to intimidate us.”
Surprisingly (no), AP failed to reach the Armed Forces of #Ukraine to provide equal opportunity to publish an opinion, so I allow myself to publish my own: no, non-dear Kenyan woman, they never tried to intimidate you, they tried to kill you all, and have a plethora of good reasons to do this. You are workers on an enemy military plant producing deadly weapons, which terrorize civil Ukrainian people every night, killing them, helping other weapons to kill even more, depriving the whole country of sleep, et cetera, et cetera. Parents bury their kids, kids bury their parents, sometimes whole families are obliterated with help of these devices, children hospitals and kindergartens are destroyed... So, ladies, when your bodies will be burning alive and ripped to parts in secondary explosions of your beloved "European"(tm) death plant, no single Ukrainian will shed a drop of tears for you, and the most polite comment will be "to each their own".
Last but not least, your kind reminder on how to figure out that a russian lies. There is a very simple but absolutely sure evidence: the lips are moving. If your "Global South"(tm) sentiments preclude you from realizing this simple fact, time to abandon them.
@hanse_mina I would say that there is just one side that escalate the #war in #Ukraine and it's the #nazi #russia and they don't want the Ukraine should be able to defend itself from being #colonized by #nazi #oppressor
Another incident of non-#Indigenous people riding on the backs of #IndigenousPeoples to profit. Of late in the #NWT #Canada it seems that it is other #colonized people who are the exploiters of identity, the fraudsters, and #abusers. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/private-college-nwt-website-touted-indigenous-leaders-support-1.7282885

#Britain once #colonized & ruled #India
Now #UK & #India are forging security ties as UK plans to send high-readiness #LittoralResponse Group to #IndianOcean region in 2024 and #CarrierStrike Group in 2025 for joint training.
Deployment of their most advanced naval capabilities portends conflict in the region that is strategically located between #MiddleEast and #FarEast
The #pitch was: Sometime in the #farfuture, five #Starsystems were #colonized by #JapaneseNationalists; people who #Romanticized #Shogunate #Japan and were swept up in a movement to reclaim their perceived golden age.
Flash forward an unspecified amount of time, and the five systems are unified into a #hightech shogunate. Each system is ruled by a #Daimyo, who answered to the #Shogun of the #Fuji system.
At least they used to, until just before the game starts, when Fuji's Star went #Novae.
The #British were #colonialPowers indeed, but they never #colonized #Palestine in the sense they occupied #India as a #colony — namely to exploit the land for its resources and send back to the host country
The British were neutral in #Turkey, which actually had a #TurkishYoke on #Palestine before #LeagueOfNations granted #Britain #mandate of Palestine
Both #US (#MorgenthauMission) & Britain opposed #Zionism but #Ottomans were not prepared to accept peace on any terms

you construct the #settler #civilian so you can construct the settler #civilized so you can define the settler #colony as an inviolable space of #civilization so you can designate the reintroduction of #violence into the space as #terrorism so you can paint the whole of the #colonized subject as #terrorists and, therefore, not civilians
