Guess colonial settlement of Scotland needs to fine tune its racist libels if it is going to rope me in!

"The level of propaganda of the English colonial state against Scotland and Scots is probably the highest in history, hiding the real constitutional situation of the annexation of a sovereign state, a supreme crime in international law."

Before Scotland's annexation in 1707 now fully documented; there was never any voluntary union and Scotland is an English colony; Scots were forbidden in law from joining the English empire and slavery was forbidden in Scots law. Actually, Jamaica was colonized by England while Scotland was colonised by Cromwell; and Scots were brought to Jamaica for example as political prisoners and servants before actual African slaves came; and they all died. The law of the English empire, which changed its name to "British" when it suited it after 1707, since annexation of a sovereign state like Scotland was already illegal in 1707, was FULLY ENGLISH. The English East India Company was English in law. Fully English.
The English colonial state has lied to the international community about Scotland having entered a so-called union voluntarily when it's simply English colonialism, territorial alienation and annexation. There isn't even a territorial union between England and Scotland; and the two Crowns remain; that's why the English colonial state had to vest Scottish oil resources in the English Crown. Think about the magnitude of that colonial crime and theft. Of course a very small minority of Scots joined or were coopted in the English empire. But that's the case of all colonized people. The colonial power genocides, ethnic cleanses, suppresses, pacifies the colonised and then integrates the collaborators to run the empire as soldiers administrators etc. It's all fully known and theorised. The level of propaganda of the English colonial state against Scotland and Scots is probably the highest in history, hiding the real constitutional situation of the annexation of a sovereign state, a supreme crime in international law. But Scotland's decolonization has begun via UN mechanisms. English colonial lies are being exposed globally. A decolonised, liberated Scotland, restored as a sovereign state, will support all former English colonies against the English colonial state for reparations, etc.

What gets me is how much worse it must be for Gaels.
Only 1-2% of settlers learn any Gaelic as adults moving to live in Gaelic speaking communities. As a Scotland wide figure around 10% of in-migrants to Scotland from mainland Europe and America learn some Gaelic.
Settlers in Scotland are stating on social media forums that “Scottish” should not be recognised politically as an ethnic identity because of historic Scottish racism, that “Scottish” should be a “civic” identity alone.
A strike against racism surely?
Well, no.
If you deny people an ethnic identity nothing done to them counts as racism, even if race difference would seem the obvious motivation for what is dome.
If you deny them an ethnic identity because they are tainted by racism they are not going to get much protection from….

Settler culture using the term "Anglophobia" as a preemptive social weapon is just wrong.
I'm a good chunk English, I refused to settle Australia as I saw that it would put me on the wrong side of a racist colonial past and present and would compromise my character.
Settlers libel two communities when they use racist shit. Their "blood and soil" and other racist libels libel the Scots, their use of "Anglophobia" as if settling a colony and inflicting racialised harm in so doing is normal English activity libels the English.
I live in a Highland town which seems about a fifth populated by settlers. There are few days in which I am spared some aspect of colonial domination theatre. Loud, obnoxious interjections into my daily life. Impositions on my time and personal space.
Scots should not be required to make decisions that will affect the entire future of their country based on the rather woolly and seemingly illogical presumption that a community that, as a whole, is notable in Scottish politics primarily for spreading racist libels, is normal….
