Colonialism and genocide justification 101 is “these savage men will rape our beautiful pure white women” and “the barbarians of this land drink our children’s blood” by the way

You are literally falling for the oldest piece of propaganda in the book. These dehumanising and made-up claims were used against Indigenous Americans, Arabs, Africans, Asians and yes, Jews too. They make everyone believe that every one of us is a filthy child eating beast with no understanding of nature or the world to justify stealing our lands and murdering our people without mercy.

Do you believe that Algeria, Haiti, South Africa, or any victim of colonisation doesn’t deserve their independence because they used violence to achieve it? Do you believe that France and England still deserve to lay claim to countless lands?

How are you siding with this?
