@elodieunderglass a (second-hand) swan story for you!
I had lunch today with a friend who lives near water, and she said that a year or so ago she watched a teenage swan hassling the local heron, following it around every time it tried to settle down and getting all aggro. The heron suffered this with great patience for some time, and then finally snapped. Full threat display; wings: spread, beak: open, noise: unearthly. (My friend: huh. Didn't know herons could make a sound like that!). The swan backpedalled frantically and booked it.
Fast forward to now. The heron has never left, but a new pair of swans have started hanging out nearby. One of them treats the heron normally, sharing space if it has to and otherwise leaving it alone. The other always gives it an extremely wide berth.

really heavily reject this idea that just by virtue of being oppressed you understand everything about all types of oppression, and that reading theory is unnecessary or is something that unoppressed people do to make themselves feel good. do not fall for this trap. you need to be reading . you need to be learning. your own ideas are good but they can only carry you so far. learn from others.

I went to an exhibition on the history of migration and colonial rhetoric in Australia and it really helped me to pinpoint my exact issue with the way non-Australians (and. tbh. some aussies) talk about this country
this map is a piece of propaganda from 1921. honestly what shocked me about it was how little of Australia is marked out as “uninhabited”. I have seen maps shared around on this website that basically mark out the entirety of non-coastal Australia as “empty”. fucking colonialists from 1921 were more generous than some of you
the history of colonial Australia is a history of “taming the untameable land”. this has been reinforced through narratives that this country is:
inherently dangerous
uninhabitable
empty
this rhetoric survives in both the way Australia is imagined by non-Australians and in the self-image of Australia. the (white) aussie battler conquers the unconquerable. the outback is imagined as a post-apocalyptic hellscape. our fauna is categorised as uniquely hellish and unwieldy. so when non-Australians make joke after joke about how scared they are of this place. well you can imagine why it fills me with the kind of rage that can only be generated by the understanding that You Are Reinforcing Colonialism
