@shanoureads Maybe it is because of cultural and language differences, but when we say "Europe" we mean their goverments, when we say "the British" we mean their empire and their army, etc. We don't have a problem with Europeans themselves, we have a problem with their goverments
@shanoureads Yes, because I'm talking about goverments and institutions and you are talking about people. I'm not pointing at the European people, I'm talking about their institutions, that's why I'm using a broader term, while you individualize on people who are not even alive anymore
@shanoureads@91desamor I understand, but again, Europe IS a coloniser in the broad term when it comes to Southamerica as all of our countries WERE colonized by Europeans. I'm generalizing cos I'm talking about invading nations, not individuals
@shanoureads@91desamor I didn't say they weren't, we also hold the goverments here responsible for letting themselves be bribed and look the other way. But their responsability has already been established, while european institutions that STILL exist keep washing their hands
@shanoureads@91desamor Oh, and one more thing: we are STILL demanding our people's bones back and several european contries still refuse to give them back so we can give them proper burial. Europe is still holding them hostage.
@shanoureads@91desamor Also, I take offense on the "you did the luring and capturing" pointing in an accusatory way, ESPECIALLY as I'm of native descent from Mapuche and Tehuelche origin
@fuckinfranco@Groggy_GD I don't think that at all, no. It explains how Cloud ended up the way he did, inserting himself into Zack's identity as a way to cope with inmense trauma.
If you remove Zack from Cloud's story, he wouldn't be Cloud, ironically
