So you've been busted as a #pretendian, and now you want to claim #Celtic.

1. What Celtic Nation do you live in?
2. ... (thread)

[CAORANN @caorann9]

And the more we look, the worse it gets. #Pretendians a-go-go... This is like some kind of #KarlMay fantasy vomited all over unsuspecting children. Have some #racism for #IndigenousPeoplesDay, #NativeTwitter. https://t.co/CP9c3c9Qdu

[CAORANN @caorann9]

Exposing young children to inaccurate depictions of living cultures is dangerous & can lead to racial prejudice & implicit bias, @playmobil.

@ISASaxonists Co-sign. We formed our group in 2006 when some of our Celtic / Gaelic Polytheism work was plagiarized by Neo-Nazis. They tried to steal our words and imagery. Some fake "Celtic" and "Norse" groups still claim to be against blatant racism but culturally appropriate from Natives.

Please don't send your thoughts about how you were Native in a past life to the registration form for events run by native people. Please. Please. Please. Just be normal.

So many of our friends and relatives are struggling during COVID - for urban folks and especially those dealing with #disability, getting laid off can mean losing health care and housing.

Non-Natives continually confuse being #Indigenous, with being only a #descendant. Often this is due to ignorance, but sometimes the deception is intentional. Good explanation here.

My response to the CBC exposé written by @Kanhehsiio & @JorgeBarrera about Michelle Latimer’s Indigenous ancestry:

[Tara Moses™ @TaraTomahawk]

I thought this was common knowledge, but since it isn't: you cannot decolonize anything without Indigenous people. This is also true for any panels, discussions, or workshops. If there are no Indigenous people on your line up, what are you even doing? Colonizing. That's what.

Go raibh maith agaibh, @IrelandLacrosse, for standing in #solidarity with @IRQ_Nationals.

To @IrelandLacrosse,

You have gone above and beyond not only for us, but for what you believe is right.
Your actions have spoken louder than words showing everyone the true power of sport, and the spirit of lacrosse.

We will never forget that.

For anyone thinking that #JessicaKrug, aka foul-mouthed #JessLaBombalera was doing anything but trying to get out ahead of the story:

[CAORANN @caorann9]

@nicdhana @neuronmk @DeLesslin @UnpaidComintern @UvKLvr47 @IAmJohnAles He's a white supremacist troll, weaponizing misinformation about POC to attack the only BIPOC he comes across online. Pretty typical.

[CAORANN @caorann9]

@nicdhana @KathleenRMC1 @jfkeeler @splcenter And as we all know, Trump has embolded them to come out from the underground. We had to form because of how often they try to infiltrate Celtic groups, or form racist groups and use "Celtic" symbolism and terminology to recruit people and disguise their racist agenda.

[Jacqueline Keeler @jfkeeler]

Whoa.

[Kathryn 🐝 NicDhàna 🐳 #TeamOrca #TeamOtter @nicdhana]

This. White wannabe #Allies / #Accomplices, send this to your people who post crap like, "Burn baby burn!" or "It's the People's Uprising!" when white bros go burning Black & Brown neighborhoods. #WhitePeople, burn your own neigbhorhood if you think it's such a great tactic.

[Kathryn 🐝 NicDhàna 🐳 #TeamOrca #TeamOtter @nicdhana]

Have this ready when anyone starts in on the thoroughly-debunked, #WhiteSupremacist, #IrishSlaves myth that falsely conflates temporary #indenture with hereditary chattel #slavery.

Just in case any #wypipo are trying to absolve themselves of some #racism or center themselves as victims by trotting out the debunked, racist, #IrishSlavesMeme, a thread from @Limerick1914
