perhaps if they actually talked to indigenous activists they could hear about things that are both actually possible and that could actually improve the lives of indigenous people in this country, instead of larping about revenge on people who largely have zero ties to any other country.
? indigeneity is a relationship to colonialism, and i am advocated for the dismantling of colonial states and a return of the settler classes to their indigenous lands. ‘israelis’ are indigenous nowhere because ‘israel’ is a settler colony built over Palestine. europeans cannot colonize europe. it was already done/is still happening. perhaps europeans should center a decolonial logic rather than the imperial one that has dictated us for centuries
you think the average white american speaks the language of their ancestors??? most americans barely even have culinary customs from where their ancestors immigrated. yes we’re obviously europeans in diaspora, that doesn’t mean it’s feasible for us to somehow integrate into the countries that our ancestors came from literal centuries ago. also christianity is not a european religion. i don’t think many pagans are running around the US (or Europe)
it literally was… and then aramaic, and then arabic. arabic is not the indigenous language of the levant dude… because arabs are indigenous to arabia. palestinians, lebanese etc. are however indigenous to the levant because they are more so culturally arabic rather than originating from arabia.
because Europe was the first victim of colonialism. the pagan and other religions indigenous to europe were also eradicated by the same thing that stripped indigenous Americans and Africans of their religions. western christianity is european in every capacity, and its forcible exportation is what has itself become a part of the ‘white’ identity
