    Conservatives are not a monolith.

    That said, “Indigenous sovereignty” is very right wing. Welcome!

      Yeah I think that the white monarchist government of my country is illegitimate and that ownership of the land should be returned to the indigenous people. If the white people don’t like it they can go back to England

      Also since the government is illegitimate, cops are actually occupying soldiers and killing them is ethically A-okay.

        Cool, cool. How do you feel about Indians and Chinese (as in the subcontinent) in Britian?

        How about Syrians in Sweden?

          Do you honestly believe it is logical to equate colonialism to immigration?

              You must not be very familiar with the impacts of colonialism then. Take your time and read these:

              https://www.currentaffairs.org/2017/09/a-quick-reminder-of-why-colonialism-was-bad

              https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/current-affairs-magazine/

              https://plato.stanford.edu/Entries/Colonialism/

              Equating the two is laughable. You are equating

              • conquest

              • the intentional destruction of a people’s civilization/government

              • slavery

              to

              • the people trying to escape said destruction/lingering impacts

              • the people moving to our nations for the hope of working for a better life, who have lower crime rates than the existing population, and are a net boon to the economy

              It is beyond ridiculous, and a miscarriage of history.

              Because colonizer is an edge lord word.

              They’re for all intents the same. Ask the native Americans if there was a difference between the colonizers and when we formed a nation with immigrants

          Indians and some Chinese technically are not immigrants to the UK. If they are part of the commonwealth, they can move to other commonwealth states. It’s similar to Puerto Rico and America but slightly different.

          It’s why there are so many Jamaicans in the UK. They are part is the commonwealth
