I only do this because I’m sick of people asking me what Kansas is like when I tell them I grew up in KC.

Not necessarily, if you’re born in the far western part of Kansas it’s perfectly acceptable to be beholden to the broncos instead I guess :^).

Warning: be prepared to get more details than you ever wanted to hear about Kansas City.

The smaller part of Kansas city, the Kansas side, is at the very eastern edge of the state. Toward central Kansas it’s more expected to root for the college football teams, since no one lives in Kansas hardly and they don’t have any NFL teams.

Majority of the population of Kansas City resides in Missouri and the chiefs are based there. Approximately 4x the residents are in Missouri vs Kansas, going by the designated city limits alone and not counting the vast urban sprawl to the east in Missouri.

With the St Louis Rams moving to California in recent years, it’s far more accurate to say that if you are born in Missouri, you are beholden to the corporation of the Kansas City chiefs!

Shana Tova!

I lean towards integration although I recognize the South African integration has largely failed, and it should be approached in a different way (how, I am unsure).

I don’t really believe white leftists when they promote expulsion, tbh. I highly doubt white leftists are gonna get up and leave America if indigenous people demand it, and it comes across to me as performative self flagellation.

By decolonize do you mean sending white people back to Europe en masse or do you mean reeducation of white people?

The latter is necessary, the former is a meme imo.

See my other comment

Agree in theory, but it would be practically impossible. Which I guess is the point I’m trying to make with most Israelis, barring the recent settler movement. This sentiment is just a meme and not something we can practically do irl.

I’ve thought about this idea for a while now, but with a different context. I’m American, but my ancestors were forcibly brought here as slaves.

America should belong to the indigenous people that have been here and have had this land stolen from them by Europeans. But I didn’t choose to be here, and neither did my ancestors. Where will I go? Just randomly show up in Nigeria, where I’m “from” but have zero actual connection to?

Are you American?

Are you American?

Are you American?

78% of Israelis were born there, the time to go back would have been a generation or two ago
