Killing landlords and slave owners.

putting them on the same level as ICE centers and concentration camps

You’re right they were way fucking worse than that.

Have you actually been to a reservation? And not one of the “good ones” (disgusts me to even split hairs like this) but I mean like Pine Ridge. They are literally death camps in all but name.

A couple years ago one elder was burning his own clothes to keep warm and not freeze to death, another elder died in his home because his fireplace went out while he was sleeping. Drug abuse is rampant kids are killing each other over scraps, there was a shooting at a powwow last year in the middle of sun dance. There is almost no drinking water that isn’t contaminated by the nearby bombing range and uranium mines.

The average life expectancy on Pine Ridge reservation TODAY is lower than it was in Gaza before the recent bombings started.

Oh and just to get there, the tribes around the black hills were sent on a forced death march through the badlands to settle in the least desirable land in the region.

This is where they were sent:

Well luckily that isn’t what most indigenous people want but if they did that is not our place to disagree. Fuck your settler grandparents.

Not in this case you really arent

By all means sure protest and use it to get people to do something more but telling Dessalines who literally created this platform and did more actual work than most of us ever had to get off their chair and go protest strikes me as lost liberal behavior.

The fuck does that matter?

I reject the notion that you need to actually be helping in order to have an opinion.

Damn almost took you seriously for a second.

You’re just being a debate pervert now. Seriously you should go back. At least go back to reddit.

You get it. I just responded something similar in this same thread.

Not just reddit but very lib brain behavior. They need material support for people on the rez not some cracker with a white savior complex holding a sign at a rally.

Hi there I am one of those people with over 20 years of direct action work on this topic and some of my best friends are Lakota, if they wanted me to leave with the rest of my settler kin I would honor that and keep fighting for revolution elsewhere God knows if I got sent back to Ireland or Wales I would have plenty work to do. You should think very hard about why you are so defensive about this.

That said chances are if you actually put in the work and shut the fuck up about impracticality or whatever else excuse you use, you’d probably be allowed to stay. Hell my friends family invited me to a wedding out at Pine Ridge but sadly I could not afford the travel expenses to attend because my last trip out there to help them with the sun dance cost me a couple grand.

In conclusion stop white-splaning land back it is not up to us what it means.

Also to the point of “go to a protest” I would ask you to go to a reservation if they want your help and do something more meaningful than some toothless march.

I knew I was gonna find one of those galaxy brain libs in here lol.

This is all from that same site. Is all of this also “Russian propaganda”?

This is the equivalent of calling Haaretz an “anti-semitic source”

The funniest part of all of this is that they said those funds should go to “NGO Ukrainska Pravda” which is literally the source you linked.

Judging from my experience with most clueless libs on lemmy the answer is no.

Honestly I would just delete my account out of embarrassment if I were you lol.

Lmao im cracking up on my bus home at this exchange holy shit dude.

a russian or chinese

bruh not beating the racism allegations holy shit.

Real “the blacks” energy in this comment like holy fuck dude.

My god you people are fucking insufferable. Everyone that disagrees with me is Russian, Chinese, paid by either, or a bot. You people literally are no better than the Qanon losers. Do you actually get how fucking unhinged you sound?

My posting has slowed down a bit but I am still averaging 1.7 posts per day for over 5 years and almost every single one is political in one way or another. Do you think I am a bot too?
