Why don’t you listen? Major tribal voices supported Harris because they knew Trump would take back the increased sovereignty they had gained.
Now they have less self-determination because he won, and he’s trying constantly to erode more tribal rights.
It was not perfect under Biden, far from it. It would not have been perfect under Harris. It was ultimately worse under Trump, and the tribes knew this would be the case. You decided they should suffer for your political rhetoric. It’s not about what they wanted it’s about what you wanted. You thought you knew better than them. It’s just the colonizer mindset
Nah, you’re continuing to silence them. You keep minimizing settler-colonial genocide in favor of tokenization, that’s the colonizer mindset. Decolonization requires self-determination, not platitudes from the ones upholding the apartheid system. I work with indigenous organizers and study the history of settler-colonialism here, as a part of ongoing work. You silence indigenous voices, and tell them their calls for self-determination are too radical, and that they should be thankful for colonizers apologizing while perpetuating apartheid.
tell them their calls for self-determination are too radical
Not once did I say this. They deserve more. I support all action peaceful to violent to further their rights. Burn the system
It’s so exhausting how you seem to think voting so things don’t get worse and advocating for more is impossible. All this mindset does is make things worse for the oppressed. Yet you ignore the clear evidence
You said that native people you knew were happy with those maintaining apartheid while giving token representation. You didn’t even know what Turtle Island was when I first mentioned it, when referring to North America as Turtle Island is incredibly common among decolonial native groups. My point is that the primary obstacle for native people isn’t something on the ballot box at all, it gets worse for them year over year regardless of who is in office. If the DNC is in office, it still gets worse, because the apartheid system makes conditions worse year over year by existing at all. Without removing it, no matter how much representation we give, conditions will always be getting worse.
You don’t give a fk about your favourite team facilitating and funding a genocide. Literal ethnic cleansing and mass killing.
Just stop. You’re making a fool out of yourself for no reason. You’re not about to convince anti-genocide protesters to celebrate your party’s wholesale murder of innocent human beings.
You told me you were tired and didn’t want to continue this on another comment. Which is why I left you be.
Okay sure I’ll bite, I don’t play teams. I pick what causes the least harm on election day and advocate for more. No current candidate will give me the world I want and I dislike them all.
Now that’s cleared up do you have anything of substance to add or would you like to say good evening for real this time?
Then why are you and others getting mad because Dems are being criticized?
Do you believe in “Vote blue no matter who?”
Or “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.”?
… suppose Donald has a stroke or something and his brain flips 180⁰. Overlooking the fact that it’s not how things actually work. Will you start supporting him unconditionally just because he’ll cause least harm?
