The idea that we were warmongers was made up to justify stealing our land. Who was it that welcomed the colonists with open arms until they spat in our ancestor’s faces? Our stories talk about war parties going out and coming back home with zero blood shed. What conflicts we did have were extremely low intensity, we didn’t have the numbers for the horrific wars like the ones waged against us by the colonists.

Many of the tribes were nomadic, we didn’t have oil reserves to war over. We had hunting grounds and fishing spots and art, and just about everyone agreed that these things weren’t worth dying for.

Well said!

Infinite growth is not a good thing, numbers rise and fall just let it do it’s own thing. That being said, maybe if the Lemmy instances would stop defederating like children snatching toys from one another at a daycare it would get more engagement.

You can criticize zionists without giving credit to anti-semitic conspiracies.

That doesn’t make a single bit of sense. Not all Jewish people are Israelis, in fact most of them are not. All Israelis are colonists and have the ability to leave to a different country at any time.

In contrast Palestinians have nowhere else to go because they are a colonized people trying to live on land that is being stolen from them while being bombed and shot every day. Even before Oct. 7th this has been the case.

Wow I had no idea, thank you for sharing this.

Tell me why he looks like Winnie The Pooh without saying it’s his eyes and skin. It’s entirely impossible to defend the racist caricature because Winnie The Pooh has like 4 distinguishing features and half of them are applied only because the man is Chinese. There are no deep insights to be found in a 2D character. Winnie The Pooh doesn’t have the same amount of forehead wrinkles, he doesn’t have the same curve on his nose, his ears aren’t even similar. So what features of Winnie The Pooh makes you believe he looks like Xi Jinping?

There are decades where nothing happens and there are weeks where decades happen.

If you think slavery has been abolished you haven’t seen prison labor.

Yeah it’s sick as hell

I don’t know anyone that actually hates it, they usually just think it’s funny how much white people love it.

Simply stop using lemmy.world. Their practices have always been shit.

Another opportunity to play Spot The Fucked Up Patch. In this one it is a crusader on the man’s chest.

Bloodthirsty maniac.

Yeah but they’ll call your family. A friend of mine was recently affected by this, a scammer had a clone of her voice asking for around $300 to fix their car because they got stranded in the middle of nowhere. So they call up your parents and to your mom it’s like “Oh no! My baby! Of course I’ll help you!” and your mom gives them $300 thinking it’s you.
