No, while Im not white Im an American citizen, my government foreign policy has been imperialist since the 1800s, so the charge isnt entirely unfounded.This but also I am white, so it's doubly accurate.
I'd probably laugh.Likely this. I laughed when the one guy was called a colonizer in both of the Black Panther movies.
Pretty sure I've never colonized a damn thing. Calling me such would be blaming me for the actions of people who lived long before I was born, towards people who lived long before the accuser was born, simply based on the respective skin colors. Or as most people call that, racism.Because colonial policies definitely haven't caused widespread and lasting harm.
Because colonial policies definitely haven't caused widespread and lasting harm.I didn't say it's "no big deal". I said I am not the one responsible for it and blaming me just because I share a skin color with those who are - not even heritage, just a skin color - is blatant racism.
Go ahead and come down to the Navajo reservation, tell them that having to drive 8 hours for water is no big deal.

Assuming you're not capable of understanding the concept of privilege, sure.What you are doing is exactly the same as those who blame Palestinian civilians for Hamas's actions, or Israeli civilians for the IDF's actions.
Congratulations, you've solved race relations through ignorance.
It is not, but explaining that to you is gonna go almost as well as explaining it to an actual horse.The only difference is that you've decided one of these groups is okay to blame the whole group for the actions of a subset, while the others you've realised it isn't.

People are not responsible for other people's actions purely on the grounds of sharing a skin color. To say otherwise is blatant racism.
Once someone said, we have more colonizer in our dnaWhat tribe
ffs Im indigenous and my family lived in bareque huts..
Alright stop tryna colonize my topic. It was a silly yes or no question.
"Neigh," he says.Can you explain how as a white person, I'm a colonizer?
See, this is why I'm talking to the horse instead.
Can you explain how as a white person, I'm a colonizer?No, because that was not the point I was making.
No, because that was not the point I was making.What is your point?
