This has been going on & on. Same comments. White people don't understand that colonising new places requires labour. Who supplies it? People who have suffered most under colonialism. "Starting over" on Mars won't overcome inequity that continues on Earth https://twitter.com/CouchMJ/status/974897173291610112 …

Many White people keep repeating it will be better on Mars because "there's no life" - that is the very same colonial mindset that led us to where we are now. On this planet they're so eager to discard. Hence my comments on lack of historical understanding in these discussions

White people who are so incensed that anyone would question Mars colonisation. They've never considered that Indigenous people see lands is sacred, & that they've *always* fought colonial expansion. Belief that colonising is neutral ignores the violent reality of colonialism.

No, it’s always been this loud. It’s the ability to ignore our voices in comfort that is diminishing a bit.

White people are fully aware. They just don't care.
