American Indians/Indigenous people under gommunism

What would happen to reservations/tribal lands and the whole concept of tribes themselves under your form of socialism/communism?

Would the Navajo, Apache, Sioux, etc get broken up for promoting ethno-nationalism or something?

If they so desired they would be given their own semi-autonomous governments. However native idpol would fade away as the benefits of socialism began to loosen the grip that the native bourgeoisie has over their much poorer ethnic brethren.

are you that Indigenius girl who was whining about communism being too white?

land ownership cannot and should not exist under communism so there will be no such thing as tribal lands or even publicly owned land.
As for tribes I don't see anything wrong with people choosing to organize themselves like that, just so long as it doesn't devolve into ethno-nationalism.

...

whos actually a trans white chick

I mean Dinétah is the perfect size for an SSR.

They get the same treatment as any other ethnic group. They get equal rights as citizens of the socialist commonwealth, if they cling to their nationalist spooks they will be dealt with accordingly.

We can't see the fucking future you retard.

Who's this?

How do you distinguish between cultural expression and nationalist spooks?

Their women are forcefully collectivized, for the greater good.

Well, I'm of the opinion that you unfortunately need to make space for ethno-nationalism to get everyone to "buy in" on the first place, because they're going to, with good cause, see anything else as de-facto chauvinism. Internationalist without necessarily being universalist: basically put a lot of effort into developing Navajo communism, Sioux communism, etc.

In the US, if you can't negotiate with minority nationalism and have some plans for decolonization, you're not going to get anywhere. This applies not only to American Indians, but Chicanos and New Africans as well. This doesn't mean balkanization, but rather something like the Soviet model, where national self-determination is an explicit part of the political system. readsettlers.org.

America needs ethnic cleansing.
Of all of them.

Many within AIM believe we should become assimilated into the greater culture. It is our best bet for saving our people from the rampant poverty we face. We don't have to give up our identities to do so and all the people who want to keep living on reservations are pretty much our version of reactionaries.

...

Tribal leaders tend to be massive reactionary fuckboys who form pacts against socialists, not sure how it would pan out in the first world though.

...

we had a thread recently: @kelsiedarko.

Just say US. The "tribes" in other first world countries can get by without help.

Saami people.

no special treatment for anyone
their reservations will be collectivized

My tribe gets millions a year in aid for things such as housing, fighting substance abuse, and education.
We don't see a cent of it. My tribal leader tends to spend roughly 50k+ a month to go to "conferences". Where they spend 10% of the time at the conference and the other 90% chilling on a beach or on the vegas strip. Stripping federal aid (from my tribe at least) would do nothing but hurt those porky piglets.

You should set up dual power and coup him, it would be hilarious.

No, just a mayonnaise-american who lives next to a poor as fuck Choctaw reservation and curious.


Could you elaborate on what extent of assimilation they usually advocate for? Obviously it's already happened to some extent everywhere - I don't know of any groups that try to live 100% traditionally - but would that mean ditching the religions, languages, names, etc?


What country does your experience come from?


That's awful. Any real chance you could quietly reach out to enough like-minded people to rally with you and do ?

Afghanistan and Burkina Faso.

I dunno, but I know what will happen to them under Capitalism.

None of these tribes classifies as anything close to a "nation" these days, they are almost completely integrated into American society and have been for a long time. It's like claiming that African-Americans are deserve a separate state.

As I see it, there'd be more natural borders. I'm not opposed to breaking up the United States, I definitely want my home land not to be ruled from Stockholm with maybe some Council Communism being the best option.

Any opinions on the Sami situation? What can be done to address their grievances. I'm just a city boy in the south and I don't know much about the specifics except that they've been royally fucked over the years.


I don't really think anyone in Stockholm wants to rule you anyway. Though porky is probably eyeing you as always. We'll need federated economic coordination but that's it though.

Cultural expression isn't political. If they want to speak their language, practice their religion and culture, etc that's fine. But if they pursue separatism then I would oppose that.

Yeah no. Take your radlib bullshit elsewhere.

Elaborate? I'm Norwegian as well, but I'm clueless about this.

they should certainly be protected from further displacement and oppression and given a greater say in national affairs.
