β€œno, land back does not mean ethnic cleansing”

I didn't suggest ethnic cleansing in the meaning of land back, nor does land back suggest ethnic cleansing. ONE of the scenarios of land back means you (as in the settler populus) would have to start pack up your stuff and leave, if this is what the Indigenous would want with their land reclaimed, then it's not up to you or me.

This is of course highly, highly unlikely and as others and I have mentioned in other threads, the Indigenous majority would actually realistically want people to stay, most probably including you (idk, I'm not a USian, never mind a Native American), if this is what you're worried about.

If I was a USian, I'd thank my lucky stars that they'd be this kind and HAVE BEEN despite them sustaining centuries of one of, if not the most brutal ethnic cleansing, land desecration and genocide, which is still ongoing to this day.

@Nakoichi@hexbear.net that was actually to me. But even then, assuming I'm not already engaging in real-life activism to downplay the point I was making isn't really a valid criticism of the point, but ig looking at other threads you seem to get that by now so it's w/e really.

Realistically and logistically speaking, if they were ever to retrieve their land back, the Native Americans would probably be MORE accepting of the idea to live amongst the working class that don't originate from their land rather than "evicting" the population, basic infrastructure (that's already replaced native tribes' land) would need maintenance, first of all.

The fact that it scares them that this highly unlikely scenario of reclaiming land then the Indigenous do whatever they want with it is very poetic. The fact that they've probably also imagined dramatically violent scenarios of this is also funny, funny strange.

Less than half an hour later, the finders keepers rule I talked about elsewhere in this thread gets invoked.

it's almost like the most thought-terminating cliches absolutely HAVE to be said and mentioned in the slightest available opportunity 🀣

Pretty much this, you read my mind here.

"Ah but you see, a long time has passed by! There's generations [of settler-colonialists] that have already lived through these times, and the people of today have nothing to do with their past!"

Motherfucker, landback means the LAND which is rightfully the Indigenous' is taken BACK, and it means you GO BACK too, no one should give a fuck about which gen. you're currently a part of.

They're going to say the exact same shit for Palestine if it's allowed to be festered long enough by settler-colonialists, as if it already hasn't been festered.

Name one part of the meme that is factually wrong, anglo-offshoot-from-europe and believer in electoralism and partisanship.

i wonder if there were any restaurants from within the former USSR countries that took the following Western "civilized detectables" as inspiration:

avert your eyes if you can't handle the delectables

(surstromming)

(schnitzel)

who am I kidding, there weren't and probably aren't any lol

Am I supposed to know where "my country" is? Whatever, doesn't matter, we now learn that you don't really consider Palestinians humans, so good talk.
