But yeah according to the RAtWM folks, these people are totally close to becoming Socialists and we should work with them.

    The implication is integrationist. Winston was one of those overly-optimistic brothers who not only thought that the settlers not only should, but could ‘take the lead in the struggle’ against racism and oppression; and as a result, we shouldn’t have a reason to want to split away from again, the colonizers.

    Frankly I find it kinda disgusting for some know-nothing fanfiction-writing cracker to claim that the internal colony theory is ‘wrong’, ESPECIALLY in the face of an Amerika that prosecutes us differently, incarcerates us differently, and still straight-up lynches us in the streets every time a cop gets called. Like, who the fuck is he to decide that? Who the fuck is this sun-dodging scoundrel to try and lash us back into boxes he can understand? If I’m honest, after every other writing I’ve seen out of Rainer thus far, this reads as little more than the longplay to turn Black folk into patsoc coons.

      That’s what I thought too. New Afrikans aren’t colonized people anymore?? I don’t remember giving crackers permission to decide for us what our positions and material conditions are, especially when it’s coming from a settler colonialist perspective.
