Today's #TheMoreYouKnow tackles a subject we know we'll get flak for.
But for the academic understanding, we have to. Otherwise how else will we fight it?

๐ชColonizers gonna Colonize - okay, but why? ๐ค๐๏ธ
๐ฌ No culture, no history, no diversity in dialectical language (not as rich as the colonized continents) and ethnicity, no food, no spice palate (Indus Valley, all of Africa, all of LATAM that supposedly all Indigenous) (also, that the world went to war for, incidentally), no fabrics/textile (Bangladesh, Indus Valley, Vietnam), no healthy fats and natural connections (Meso, olive oil, roses, ayurvedah, herbalism, native remedies), no graceful aging (age like crinkled paper coz bad genetics), no resilience (think black/brown/yellow farmers in fields all day, in the sun) several diseases (incest and inbreeding), lost children (no anchor to any kind of culture, no recognition for Neurodivergence and gender fluidity like Hawaii', Maori, ancient Veydic texts and/or other tribes), no land resources (land has no olive trees, no rare minerals, no gemstones, nothing enrichable and usable, just.. ""Oil"" maybe). ๐ญ
๐ฏTL; DR: What else can they do other than (1) Invade (2) Occupy (3) Genocide (4) Steal (5) Copy (6) Settle (7) cycle repeats โป๏ธ
White people are also often attracted to Partners of color (I'm one of them too, I'm white, but my wife is beautifully not) - why?
Coz you're fighting Biology, that's why.
You've/we've been fighting our whole lives. Time to put the ๐ก๏ธ down and build a better future ๐ก
