    It been interesting to see white people in Canada afraid of being colonized while vehemently downplaying the Indigenous people’s grievances as “why can’t they just accept the culture they’ve been given?” So close to self awareness but will never get there.

    Seriously, when Indigenous groups pushed back on Carney’s “elbows up” nation building projects, I saw so many comments from internet geniuses along the lines of “they’re trying to treat this like their inter-tribal relations where they demand soverignty and veto power on anything that goes on in their territory at any point in the process, unfortunately that’s not how Western investment and development work.” Yeah, it really is fucking unfortunate that we’re still denying them their culture and ways of doing things.

    You must be pretty uneducated to think that USA did not mess with Europe economy, politics, society etc etc.

    I mean for fuck sake, USA was both funding and directing terrorist attacks all over the Europe up until 1990s

    (Years of Lead, Operation Gladio…)

    That’s too funny, it would be more hilarious and real if you put like 100 faces there in the bottom.
