@meowmert @homestuckEROTIC @whitefeelimgs Holy libtard - you got it bro

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@meowmert @homestuckEROTIC @whitefeelimgs Then I suggest u read Walter Mignolo the idea of Latin America to see how 1492 created the very gender, race and labour regimes we experience that depended on this very same violence. Ur ignorance will not save the criticism

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@homestuckEROTIC @whitefeelimgs So the critique is not laughable- this is why ppl shit on her cause yall whitewash the violence people are still experiencing

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@homestuckEROTIC @whitefeelimgs Once indigenous ppls are erased it’s no longer settler colonialism- the project of genocide is completed, this is a case of that. Just cause we are experiencing the event after the violence, does not mean indigenous ppl weren’t settled on

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@whitefeelimgs Stupid remarks that foreclose any criticism of those who have benefited from colonial history. You choose to erase those peoples and their way of living to escape criticism. Colonialism works to kill indignous ppl so no shit there are none left

@blizzy_mcguire Beat it up blizzy

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@activemuffin @estrogenpun So this explains the total point altogether- although you don’t see th value, on the global market level, this land is now part of debt systems, so when US goes to war, these lands are affected too. Look past gdp to see the violence

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@activemuffin @estrogenpun I believe that dependency economic framework force states in the periphery to be in an unequal exchange of value that’s inherent to the system. So any economies that emerge is just neoliberalism consuming local economies.

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@activemuffin @estrogenpun not really tht - I tell u that dependency economics is the structure that many states on the periphery experience and you tell me that it may be beneficial. Like it’s twitter and I don’t have the space to critique this neoliberal bs

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@activemuffin @estrogenpun Blahhhh I was hoping for an engaging chat but seems like we hit the limit - take care

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@activemuffin @estrogenpun Now rent is being extracted than letting local communities decide. If you tell me that they been eradicated, ask yourself why

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@activemuffin @estrogenpun Hypothetical - At face value that is land that has to be accounted for within the global market system. Now multiply that for every airbnb in the region, that gives you an idea of the value being extracted to western states or elites of that region.

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@activemuffin @estrogenpun Rather than having that land be used for local economies, that value is part of the wider financial market that creates its own condition. So it’s part of the wider economic system established after WW2 with dependency economics

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@activemuffin @estrogenpun I’m Latina baby I’m going back home

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@activemuffin @estrogenpun Also kinda the point of having a critique be grounded on the context we exist in. Rather than ignore it, actively work try to work past it. Yes good observation that a migrant is displaced onto state where a surplus demanded - yes it’s a structure critique

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@activemuffin @estrogenpun No I do appreciate this cause yes! It’s actually a well documented experience amongst this form of existence. There is no way to totalize the presence to something neat but rather then pretend it’s not a tension.

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@noelle_0099 @estrogenpun Also I subscribe to the idea that settler colonialism when completed gets understood as colonialism because Indigenous ppl are fully eradicated so it allows for a theoretical link to be drawn

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@noelle_0099 @estrogenpun if we getting into the nuances between settler colonialism and extractive forms of colonialism then sure - different forms . But the dispossession of territory for pro capitalist forms of accumulation is the connection im emphasizing.

[Natalia @Femmecholy]

@estrogenpun Will do! Getting you those pdfs
