These assholes aren't benevolent. They aren't your friends.

Nearly every large scale installment that has gushed from the maw of silicon valley has increased alienation, and made all our lives exponentially more transactional.

Emma LaPlante Emily Ratajkowski It’s not about who’s trying to “destroy democracy” or not, it’s about ceding powers to a for-profit company with no legal authority or democratic accountability.

Who’s to say twitter/Facebook will act in good faith? Maybe they ban people to suit their own agenda? What then?

Head Cleaner - Worst band ever.

How good is 'Invasion day' as a campaign? Strategic kick in Australia's balls. Irreversibly changed the Zeitgeist.

White ppl fawning over mediocre Blak men 🙄

Caitlin Johnstone At least call it coupsplay.

Other aspects of white supremacist movements co-opting First Peoples cultures & symbology is gaslighting, usurping sovereignty of First Peoples & ongoing erasure. When you uncritically repeat their self-appointed appropriated labels (ie QShaman) you become part of their PR team.

There's also a long history of settler-colonials and their political movements (on the left and right of the spectrum) co-opting First Peoples cultural practices, beliefs and symbology in the occupied land referred to as Australia. Colonisers keep on colonising in unsettled lands

when Carl Sagan said, “We are like butterflies who flutter for a day and think it is forever.” I FELT THAT 😭✨👏

'Indigenous' is the new 'uncivilised' - with second-rate rights. We are Sovereign, not a backward minority.

Many Canadians are finally starting to realize that their politicians don’t really care about them. Indigenous people have been trying to tell you that for a while now!

Digitized ship's log entries from 1740 to 1855 allow us to see old trade routes really clearly. Shows where the European Empires had their colonies. Not sure why Portugal isn’t featured or why the Mediterranean looks empty. Any guesses? Source: buff.ly/38ISkeY

Also can people stop being like “oh it’s a small step”.

Fuck small steps, our elders built community’s from dirt floors, nothing was given to us through small steps it was always our mob making big moves and creating what we needed from nothing, no small stepping.

I don’t care about their anthem

I can’t pretend colonial governance structures have the ability to do anything but colonise

I don’t buy into the idea of treaties w them either cos they will never be sincere

Their colonisers that’s what they do and they can have their ugly song

Welcome to the Fourth International Decade for the Eradication of Colonialism

Replacing “young” with “one” in the anthem is straight up claiming the ancient, intimate connection between First Nations on this continent and their lands for the imperialist, land thieving nation of Australia

Excuse me - but when did they ask the Australian people if they would like their anthem changed?
