A settler organized in a militia killed a Kanak protesting for liberation from French colonialism in Kanaky.

They are trying to minimize it by saying (without proper investigation) that the settler was defending himself and calling him a “civilian” as well as by calling the Kanak man a “rioter”. The high commissioner also announced that if “calm” doesn’t come back he will organize a military intervention to bring back “peace” and “calm”. For the record there’s already a lot of military checkpoints (edit: I used the expression military checkpoint but it’s not the right one I’m talking about the control by the gendarmerie who are like cops except they are in the military) that Kanak people have to go through daily in certain area and a heavy military presence so when he is talking about military intervention he is talking about killing people.

Article (in French)

This is all happening because France wants to accelerate the colonization of Kanaky by allowing every single white French adult the right to vote locally. The Kanak resistance managed to negotiate so only settlers who had been in Kanaky for a decade or more in 1998 could vote locally. New settlers cannot do it. And France and its settlers want to go back on that accord saying that the 2021 referendum shows that people don’t want liberation so it’s racist (against settlers) to not let them vote (and take over Kanaky completely)

If any piece of shit brings up the 2021 referendum as a justification of French colonialism in Kanaky, know that it has zero value. The Kanak people and the resistance called for a report of the vote because of COVID. Mentioning that not only there was a health risk but that Kanak people have a long grieving period which meant that they wouldn’t be able to vote. That vote ended up being only a settler vote. If you compare it to the two previous votes with higher participation rate it’s almost certain that the Yes to independence would have won.

For those who don’t know it international law recognize Kanaky as a colony. The UN has Kanaky on the list of territories where indigenous people have no right to self determination and they recognize France as the occupying power (thanks to Palestine we’ve seen that international law doesn’t apply to Western backed colonialism but that’s an other topic)

the reason america so often feels undemocratic is because it was never designed to be any sort of real democracy

3 headcanons that I have that diverge from canon because i can't let go of history:

- Matthew hasn't been raised by Francis, they only vaguely know each other ;

- HRE grew up at practically the same rate as everyone around him, him being Ludwig is still something I'm thinking about though.... ;

- Same goes for Veneziano and Romano, no staying kids until the XIXth century. They are also not born during the Roman period.

Doesn't mean I don't like when I see Matthiew and being like Francis' son or HRE and Veneziano being kids, I just don't like it when I do it 😭

How to identify if someone is from Western Canada:

"French is pointless why learn French nobody in Canada speaks French except in Québec no one has ever been oppressed for speaking French did I mention I hate French?"

Suis-je les rites mortuaires ?

Chaque jour, je me souviens encore un peu plus de ce que j’ai subi

Chaque jour, je comprends un peu mieux ce qu’a été ma vie

Je n’ai connu ni les fêtes de chez moi, ni la mort, seulement l’assassinat

Enfermé bien au-dessus des autres, et en réalité enterré ici-bas

J’apprends à crier, à chanter, à mettre le feu à leurs rêves

Amour destructeur et colère créative valent mille fois leurs fausses trêves

On souffre, et qui est ce « on », si ce n’est leur version du « vous » ?

Tristes menteurs qui déversent du poison dans nos deux joues

Mais je ne veux plus être ces funestes célébrations

Elles m’ont été imposées jusque dans ma maison

Rites mortuaires, laissez-moi devenir les transes de la naissance

Qui renaît, qui grandit, qui forge notre essence

Vocalises et chants, rythmes et pas, ça sonne bien comme ça sonne mal

Brillent ceux dont la vue les rend pâles

France banning TikTok in Kanaky. I guess France doesn’t want its soldiers to expose their colonial crimes on TikTok the way Israeli soldiers do it. And they don’t want people on TikTok to support the liberation of Kanaky.

"'BACK-TO-LAND' PLAN URGED AS SLUMP CURE," Toronto Star. October 5, 1933. Page 2. --- Georges Bouchard, M.P., Asserts It Will Alleviate Unemployment ---- Strong support of a "back-to-the-land" movement as a cure for the unemployment problem in Canada was urged by Georges Bouchard, M.P., author and agricultural expert of Quebec, speaker to-day at a luncheon meeting of the Empire club at the Royal York. He outlined what he considered a suitable plan whereby governments and relief agencies could launch a widespread "back-to-the-land" scheme which would greatly alleviate present economic ills.

Mr. Bouchard, a part-time professor at the agricultural college of St. Anne de la Pocatiere, gained considerable prominence last year when he wore in the House of Commons a suit of homespun cloth, woven from undyed black and white wools by his wife. It is indicative of his personal belief that the beautiful and cultural aspects of farm life must be re-emphasized.

The speaker urged a three-fold consideration of the "back-to-the- land" question. "We must attack it with a courageous hand, a thinking brain and a loving heart," he said.

does throwing a stone at a tank

make a child a terrorist?

is terrorism about resisting oppression? is terrorism about demanding your birthright to live safely and peacefully in your homeland? is terrorism about hating the killers of your family, your friends and your people?

accusations of terrorism are often weaponized against those fighting for liberation and sovereignty and dignity. the french settlers called the algerians terrorists. the indian government calls the kashmiris terrorists. the pakistani army calls pashtun activists terrorists. the turkish government calls the kurds terrorists. apartheid south africa called nelson mandela a terrorist. americans called the vietcong and the black panthers terrorists. the israelis call the palestinians terrorists. all oppressive regimes are connected. all oppressed people are connected. injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.
