What Algeria can teach us about Palestine.

Sent this too a friend on insta and she lacked context on a couple things so just in case…

Calling settlers “French Algerians” is actually historically accurate. They got to be called Algerians we were called “indigene” (in French it was synonymous to savage) and “muslims” (Muslim was a legal status that had nothing to do with actually believing in Islam you could be Christian Muslim for example). At best our grandparents were called “French Muslim of Algeria” they wanted to erase the fact that the land belonged to us by refusing to call us Algerians.

The guy with the eye patch in the video is a horrible monster. It’s the general Aussaresses. He is famous for admitting using torture and admitting that the French generalized it against Algerians (with the approval of the government). White people hated him for admitting that but the thing is he never expressed any regrets. He just stated it as a normal fact of the war. He actually trained the Americans who were sent to Vietnam encouraging them to use torture on civilians saying that when there’s an uprising the enemy is the people so they must be tortured and killed. He died in 2013 and I’m sure that he is burning in hell.

You can’t deserve a person’s love. You’ll drive yourself crazy thinking like that. They either love you, or they don’t. That doesn’t mean you weren’t good enough for them to love you, because love isn’t something you earn by being good enough. It isn’t something that can be quantified or doled out. Don’t blame yourself for not being loved how you need to, just teach yourself how to look for love where love lives.

[mockiatoh]

This isn’t just about romantic love, or even skewed towards romantic love, although it does apply there too. One of the hardest things I’ve ever had to accept is that my mother simply wasn’t someone who was capable of loving me, and there is no version of me that I could have ever been that would have earned that love. But with acceptance came healing. I was able to love myself more instead of resenting myself for not being more than any one person could be.
