I stepped away from the pod for 2 reasons. 1. My wife needed surgery to remove cancer, which has been very stressful for my fam. 2. Some racist/crazy Anglo lady kidnapped my kids, which also put more stress on my fam, and I'm still dealing w/ it legally to press charges on her.

Calling Palestinians "workers", instead of who they are: an Indigenous nation, is next level chauvinism. Indigenous peoples don't need to be "proletarianized" to be considered "revolutionary", or to be "worth" fighting for.

Why do settlers always think Decolonization (liberation of colonized peoples) means "killing" them? It means destroying the colonial power structures. Ironically, they kill Indigenous peoples to maintain their colonial systems. They're always self-victimizing

Remember when Palestine Action US were claiming that their profile was being suppressed? We all feel for that, even me. Later, I found out that Fergie runs that page. Everyone shared that page to help. It was all a tactic to get a larger audience. Using Palestine situation... 1/

A settler (Maupin) posting a picture of OG American colonizers while saying, "The Real America stands with Yemen". I doubt George Washington, an anti-Indigenous slave owner, would stand with Yemen. I'm pretty damn sure Washington would back western imperialism today.

Settler colonialism is fascism. Fascism is colonialism turned inward. Indigenous peoples globally have been dealing with fascism for 500 years. Just because euros start to feel oppression, then they finally call it "fascism"

The reason why so many American [leftists] fall into "Russia is trying to colonize Ukraine" rhetoric, instead of understanding that the US is using [insert country] as a proxies to colonize the world, is because they have a shallow understanding of history & politics. 1/

I watched "Zone of Interest" weeks ago, because settlers were saying "it was shocking how ppl can live normally while atrocities were happening next to them". Hate to break it to you: That's what has been happening for the last 500 years in all settler colonial states.

Damn, It's literally the same thing that Indigenous peoples on this continent have been saying. But chauvinist settlers have been distorting the meaning of Decolonization by saying it's "genocide", or we want to "kick out all Europeans".

Common sense solution: Venezuela & Guyana agree that the esequibo zone be neutral, & that no mining (or extraction) in any way should be conducted without the consent of the Indigenous peoples. & if they choose to, become an independent state from either of them. 1/

I would like to make people aware that a podcast exists, that's ran by 4 Indigenous women in the PNW, who speak about the MMIW situation. I don't think they have enough acknowledgment for the work they do. Check them out:

If you think the American Revolution was "progressive": 1. You're not a Marxist 2. You have obvious colonial bias. 3. You're a complete idiot.

This is why we're seeing alot of settler nationalist (Patsoc) colonial bias revisionist shit happening. It's why these "anti-imperialist" podcasts talk about US imperialism abroad, but ignore settler colonialism issues at home. They also fund anti-marxist Natives domestically. 2/

The reason why magacoms/patsocs have done so well in disrupting the western left, is because they feed into eurocentrism that is abundant within the western left. If the western left doesn't reevaluate itself, it will be destroyed from within by these fascists.

This is further proof that settler parties will never be the vanguard. CPUSA are not revolutionary, they're just labor zionist. Look at their party program. Dont join CPUSA. You can't reform settler colonialism. 2/

You know, how can any Marxist defend US Imperialism? I cannot. The US takes complex situations & turns them into opportunities to destabilize regions. It's ok to have criticisms about Venezuela, but not to the point of US intervention.

Black people (descendants of people forcefully brought from Africa to America by euro colonialism) are not settlers. We need to talk about their sovereignty that would exist alongside with the other 574+ Indigenous nations on this continent.

I think settler colonialism creates a contradiction which can go by other names as well, but it is essentially the maintenance of a truly politically disenfranchised population. Which is how black diaspora can fall under colonized/indigenous. As unorthodox as it might sound,

In: Cherokee Nation v. Georgia, 30 U.S. (5 Pet.) 1 (1831). The US govt lables Indigenous nations as "Domestic Dependant Nations", & calls itself a "guardian" & Indigenous nations as its "wards". This is EXISTING colonial federal Indian policy. This is Native history 101.
