Eh… I mean yes, I get where you’re coming from but personally I just don’t agree with forced movement. My family is OG settler colonialists, been here since the 1600s, and I agree that serious reparations should be paid to native peoples (including minimum representation in government and complete land back) I seriously wouldn’t want to be forced to move to Europe.
If we offered clemency to every son and daughter of settlers that still exists on this landmass, we'd literally never achieve the aims of decolonization because there will always be some settler's larvae wriggling into and wrecking the process. Somebody's gonna have to bite a bullet here, and it ain't gonna be us.
