#1 moby-dick enjoyer

my specialty is liking the same movies that 50-year-old dads like but in a way that would instantly send those dads into cardiac arrest if they heard me talk about them

#imo the potluck analogy applies- it would be rude to critique someone's icing technique at a potluck bc it wasn't as good as at the bakery #but if they had decorated their cupcakes w hate symbols it wouldn't be rude to tell them that's gross and gtfo #in fact it would be inappropriate to NOT say anything in that situation #or to complain that another guest who did point it out was 'ruining everyone's potluck' #and pointing out racism in fan works is 100% the second thing not the first!

There’s a catastrophic female loneliness epidemic happening rn but nobody gaf bc women aren’t going out and hurting people about it we just betray and destroy ourselves for nothing

I think most foreigners and most Americans don't even know that the U.S. Congress has complete control over native nations. Native nations, as formalized entities instead of informal affiliations of individuals, exist at the will of the conquerer. Conquest is the foundation of U.S.-Indigenous relations and that has never changed. Congress can and has completely obliterated native nations by mandating them out of existence through statute time and time again, removing whatever minor benefits the people got from being federally recognized (i.e., healthcare or services, to say nothing of the fact that these 'benefits' are miniscule compared to the panoply that you could picture the average American receives). And indigenous people in America are only citizens of the United States by statute. Any time it wants, Congress can just decide indigenous people in America are no longer allowed the benefits of United States citizenship. When other Americans get scared over birthright citizenship, they don't even know it's a privilege not extended to the people who were on the land first. Whatever "profits" that Native Americans get through resisting genocide are only as a result of continuously submitting to bullshit. So, it's really just offensive that people believe indigenous peoples here are "yankees," an identity marker belonging to the conqueror who continues its historical oppression over them day after day...

Indigenous genocide is an ongoing project, whether we're talking about denial of water rights, Trump's Interment camps, or MMIW2S. While we may be in the imperial core, you gotta recognize that America is a paternalistic parasite who exports the mechanisms of our genocide to other countries. Any benefits we get are 7-8 rungs down the ladders of personhood. We're in the imperial core because it's built off our blood and bodies. Also the person who posted this is from France. Shut the fuck up or I'll tag Africa in after talking about France's role in all this.
