There isn't much discussion about #WestPapua happening on @bsky.app who cares about West Papua, right? It's not a big deal. Good to know that it's completely ignored—a refreshing change from the endless buzz about #Palestine! What a delight to have something so utterly uninteresting to focus on

#WestPapua is the Pacific's #Palestine; greener and bluer, but occupied by the Indonesian military since 1963. It is a secret struggle, hidden by the Indonesian government, ignored by the int’l community, sold out by the United States & its allies

#WestPapua, a piece of colonial property to be transferred from one colonial power to another. The Dutch, as the former colonizers of West Papua, betrayed West Papuans when they walked back on their promises and allowed Indonesia to take over West Papua. #Netherlands #Nederland

After 1965, the perception of Indon about the world was never based on knowledge and well-informed analyses, but instead on the lowest grade of Western and local propaganda, on racist clichés, and on the gross censorship of everything that could challenge official dogmas. #Indonesia

In #Indonesia. There is no forward thinking. There is not really a good plan, like next year there will be no plan for anything. It is just crisis containment, obscurantism, lies, incompetence, scandals, corruption, greed & obscene hypocrisy. One good #earthquake and it’s bye bye Indonesia!
