    What they fear is that the revolutionary nationalist will engage in the same savagery that has marked the European’s “national conquest”. They fear a reverse “Manifest Destiny” or the brown-black version of the “White Man’s Burden”.

    Love it, love it to death. You see this kind of energy in say, how Vaush slandered Professor Flowers. Where I feel there needs to be a little bit of construction and sanding, is in this quote: "This should not be taken as a call for “segregation”; it rather points to the fact that the topic of national liberation is specifically for that nation’s people. "

    If there's one thing the settler loves, it's invoking the 'they want to segregate the country again' whenever we get on the concept of self-determination and base-building. How do we cleanly, succinctly run the line that we're already segregated, and may as well not even be part of the same nation with how differently the law is applied to us?

      Black radicals controlling political power structures, financial structures, and law should not be a fear for whites, but many are latent fascists simply hoping to "never starve again" as in the movie Gone With the Wind. The white supremacist settler fascists have total control of the current hellstate thus its in their interests to seek inclusive capitalist reforms so "everyone can get along" under a white supremacist capitalist power structure and "the rules based world order". To worry about some far off future of supposed segregation instead of the immediate survival of the oppressed and incarcerated masses is very telling of western leftists thought process.

        "Rules-based world order" has been the funniest settler brainworm to emerge in the last couple decades for me, specifically because of how 'rules for thee, not for me' it looks on its face. Like not just abroad, but domestically; you don't hear about the patsocs getting raided for talking their trash, but oooooh lord let a Black socialist start opposing the war effort and see how quick they get raided for being 'Russian disinfo agents'.

          US media quickly points at 'Russian disinfo' as if US propaganda isn't blasting 24/7 at the volume of a low flying terror jet over gaza.
