that would be fucked to have some people come onto your land and start cutting down trees that support the ecosystem for the animals they hunt and the plants they eat... then being herded into a poor residential area to live your life out

those major mineral and oil exploration firms are very disrespectful to the environment, and alot of them dont know or practice sustainable development

i dont think its racist i just think alot of it has to do with greed but still our world is way to over populated to begin with we are using up too much resources at one time which is causing the planet to die. the earth is a living thing just as we are

That's elitism, not racism. Similar in style but one is race based one is class based. I believe the west is very much elitist though.

I agree with the Penguin on this one. There are armies from every generation (the Builders through to Gen Z) of people in the West who care very much about the environment and indigenous peoples. The church I belong to cycles their young people through service programs dedicated to both these issues.

In my view, it is a problem of big business eltism leveraging our government to practice a form of capitalism that maximizes short term profitability at the expense of long term benefit/profitability (on both sides).

It's not about Western racism.

I do sympathise with such people, however, this is the way of the world- we in the UK are expected to accept migrants, asylum seekers etc from every corner of the world, and just shut up about it

I have no real say about that
