  1. Exactly! Colonials in the 19th and 20th Century used dehumanizing and patronizing talking points such as “savages” and “we’re going to civilize them” in order to kill and take native indigenous lands and steal their resources. Now, in the 21st Century these same colonizers are using the same concept (savage = terrorist) and “civilize them = bringing democracy) in order to invade, steal our rich resources, and occupy strategic lands. I swear, Shaytan and his minions always use the same talking points with each new generation that comes after. “Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” George Santayana “If you're not careful, the newspapers (media) will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” Malcolm X

  2. It’s time to be honest when covering this. Colonials in the 19th and 20th Century used dehumanizing and patronizing talking points such as “savages” and “we’re going to civilize them” in order to kill and take native indigenous lands and steal their resources. Now, in the 21st Century these same colonizers are using the same concept (savage = terrorist) and “civilize them = bringing democracy) in order to invade, steal our rich resources, and occupy strategic lands.
