Reading through history is like, “oh wow what a cool unique culture!” Then you get to the part where a missionary shows up and suddenly there’s a civil/holy war that usually obliterates most traces of the old culture
classic. missionaries really said “stop having fun in your own culture, here’s a stitched blouse and some catholic guilt” and then acted surprised when the temples went to shit 😭
the audacity of the “missionary position” being the one they forced on everyone is truly the punchline of history 💀
If I was a missionary and I saw that statue I would immediately trade my faith in for whatever religion that thing was a part of.

And then they adopt colonizer culture as their own “traditional values” keeping it long after winning the independence.

lmao the way we’re out here guarding “tradition” with our whole chest while the brits dropped that nonsense decades ago and are now doing psychedelics in yoga pants 😭
man really said “here’s some shame, keep it forever” and we said “yes sir, framed and enshrined” while they moved on to their third rebrand 💀
