    I hate how the label “undocumented migrants” is slapped onto people who have lived there for longer than the concept of a nation state existed.

      The country is basically that. Google ‘orang asli’ (original people in the native language) and the use of the word ‘pendatang’ (translation: immigrant) as it refers to the native non-malay population in racial politics.

    I wouldn’t fuck with the Sea Peoples, Malaysia. That’s how the Bronze Age Collapse started.

        We should probably build a large pyramid now before it’s too late.

    I had thought maybe this was about Libertarian crypto bros, and was ready to laugh. This is less funny

      These people have lived all their lives on the seas for thousands of years roaming the seas in Southeast Asia hopping from island to island. Nobody’s restricted their movements till now.

        Yeah, like I said, less funny. I’m willing to laugh at the misfortune of crypto bros doing stupid things. Not willing to laugh at a nomadic people having their way of life destroyed.
