We are all one, now, ok?

I had an experience tonight on Twitter which was to say the least quite unpleasant, especially since it was with someone I had previously greatly respected. I'm not gunna link the tweets, they exist, go find em yourselves. It's not important really, what is important is that the lack of attempt to understand what I was saying was routed in a bias against my color, and my race. I'm a white male.

I get it, First Nations, you're mad. I would be too. The colonizers are racist fucks, but I'm not one of them. I rally against them. Holding a grudge isn't going to get the human race as a whole anywhere fast.

I attended the #C51 nation wide rally last Saturday here in Edmonton and out of all the speakers only one I felt was the absolute truth. All the others were sugar coated with political platitudes, but this one, this very special one that filled my heart with joy to hear the truth, the full truth, and nothing but the truth spilled, was exactly what I wanted and needed to hear.

This speech reminded me of a video I saw a few years ago, which is mainly talking about the U.S. directly but in reality this same thing is happening everywhere. Yes I know this next video is from Infowars, I don't like to source them as they are not trust worthy, HOWEVER Russell Means was greatly respected by the late Michael C. Ruppert, who is/was greatly respected by me. SO WATCH THIS FUCKING VIDEO.

We're all one, now, ok? We're all being colonized.
