I hear so often, land back! To who? Indigenous people? What indigenous people, or what indigenous organization(s) get what exactly? They don’t know! They are all tied up in the courts trying to get governments to honor the original agreements, they never go on the offensive, there has never been an official declaration of “this is all ours actually” and like ignore the courts and just like start planning on using all that stolen property if it was taken back. Like United States, what tribes get what in balkanization, no one can answer that. Or Palestine, say Hamas did capture Tel Aviv, nobody is thinking about the sewage systems or the ports or what the logistics of redistributing any of that wealth would look like. There may be more important things to focus on than the hypothetical redistribution of wealth that is not ours yet, but we have no fucking plans! Have any of you even read project 2025? They know exactly what they want to do, they know what jobs they want to get their cronies into, they know what specific fossil fuel infrastructure needs federal funding, they know what laws they want to repeal, and pass, it may be unambiguously evil but they got a plan damnit, do we have a plan? Do we have a website laying out bullet point presentation on what we would do in power? Do we have a political manifesto for what would we do if a leftist somehow became president (or some equivalent)? No! We have nothing, if we spent even a 10th of the amount of effort on doing this instead of talking about bike lines or high speed rail lines that would never be built, we might actually have something ideological to rally around in the west, also this kind of dialogue IS the precursor to doing any form of reparations.
