The thought of being remembered for something so bland and boring is weirdly scary to me. Maybe Felix was on to something when he talked about how settler-colonialism hollows out your soul and kills any culture, creativity or national identity you might've otherwise had.

Now, how do you explain to Americans who are relatively, within the US, poor but who are, in a global perspective, 'not bad off' that they should give a shred of a shit about atrocities committed by the US military? Well, to be super frank, you kinda can't. People have to change their entire fucking mindset and view of the world in order to see that the capitalists of our country collude with other capitalists and use financial and military strength to subjugate the world to enrich themselves.
what does "not bad off" mean here? i'm absolutely miserable despite my privilege and the people who are "worse off" than me aren't killing themselves en masse, so you know, maybe trading relative poverty for absolute poverty and not living here would increase my quality of life?
