@___hotpepper___ да, это реальная игла кощея 😀 даже отклеившийся крым такого вряд ли сможет сделать. а вот бензин сможет. надеюсь ВСУ тоже так считает 🙂
Land acknowledgements are bullshit and fundamentally about normalizing blood-and-soil nationalism. They pretend that North America rightfully belongs to one ethnicity, and that all other peoples, lacking an ill-defined “spiritual” connection to the continent, should perpetually be “grateful” for the “opportunity” to exist here.
If European nations demanded that all non-Europeans regularly express gratitude for living on “traditionally European lands,” progressives would rightfully see this as unjust. Yet, they abandon their principles when it comes to Indigenous land acknowledgements because they are either too stupid, or too intellectually unprincipled, to see the contradiction here.
Land acknowledgements should be purged from our institutions, and, to this end, no self-respecting conservative should perform them. The obvious exception would be at events that specifically concern the Indigenous community, and only if an acknowledgement uses wording that simply states historical facts without establishing a racial hierarchy of citizen legitimacy.
