By Swanson’s estimates, 1-in-17 Native Hawaiians had died within two years of Cook’s arrival. By 1800, the population had declined by 48% since Cook set foot on Hawaii. By 1820, it had declined 71%; by 1840, it declined 84%.
no, indigenous people. the ones who were “actually colonized” like you said.
and no you said it’s “always a white American man” implying you follow spaces where similar voices reign and i’m letting you know that’s a uniquely you experience that doesn’t have to stay that way.
talk about bad faith, must be exhausting to be like that.
Why is it when someone makes a post like this it’s always a white American man that looks like soyjack and never someone who was actually colonised?
95% of hawaiians were murdered by white people?
You mean this community we both follow?
95% might be high but close. Maybe 85% is more accurate?
Cook and his men also brought syphilis and mosquitoes so fuck those dudes right in the ear.

You only follow white people ? I follow some people from our literal colonies (I’m french) and I see stuff like that quite often from them
No
They have to be offended on behalf of all those people who are too busy actually having a life.
Is disliking colonization really “getting offended on behalf of all those people”?
it’s not cool to be empathetic anymore you have to be edgy and reactionary even in the face of the greatest atrocities we know. haven’t you heard?
