Settlers makes a lot of great observations and analysis but it definitely tends to spawn settlers-brain idiocy like saying all white settlers should be rounded up and forcibly settled (lol) throughout the global south. It's also kind of paralyzing in that it makes it seem as though your movement cannot include white people unless they're fine with constant self-flagellation, which is never going to be a significant number of people. If you live in a place that is majority white and you believe that 90% of whites are irredeemable, how can you ever expect to achieve revolution? Solidarity seems impossible if you take everything in Settlers to heart. It's very much a self-fulfilling prophecy.
That's why I think it is, or might as well be, an op. Because following it to its conclusions is a recipe for splitting and not getting anything done in a majority white area.
Also Settlers brain is very real and very funny. You can tell who has had their mind blown by it recently by their sudden change in language choices.
