The assertion that a piece of territory belongs to "institutions" versus "racial groups" is a mischaracterization of Indigenous nationhood and sovereignty. It is, to me, the right-wing version of the settler left's argument that Land Back is tantamount to ethnonationalism.

I strongly encourage people to learn about the history of nativism in the US. Esp post 911 and esp in context of the internet. There is an extremely important history there and it helps explain where we are and even how to move forward.

Noah Smith's assertions here lie in the assumption that Indigenous nations are not truly nations, but rather, 'racial groups'. This is neither true nor demonstrates a complete understanding of Indigenous nationhood.

No, You Are Not on Indigenous Land
No, you are not on Indigenous land, argues Noah Smith. Pieces of territory belong to institutions, not to racial groups.

I try to avoid binary thinking, but...

There are only two types of people in the world.

"I had to suffer, so should they."

Or "I had to suffer, and I will work to help others so they don't have to."

"Device hoarding" 🤦🏽‍♂️ yeah, just consume, don’t think, just buy! You’ll always have money, you should buy even if you don’t need anything. Fuck that.
Still using my iPhone 12 Pro Max thanks. It still scrolls the internet for bullshit and texts and runs my banking apps fine, I’ll be sure to let you know if that changes. The Corolla still has another 150k miles on it too, am I a “car hoarder”, I only have the one.
