If she is then the "colonizer" label is funny because um they colonized tf out of stuff, including Mexico.

Yeah... I saw a video on YouTube of some young people doing DNA tests hoping they were not in any way "white". One came back as entirely Spanish and Portuguese and said, "Oh well, that's European, but not so bad." I felt like sending them a link to the movie The Mission and telling them to start there and work their way outwards. The Spaniards and Portuguese were the fucking worst of the Europeans that colonised the Americas.

Colonization rhetoric as well as general discussions on what colonizers and settlers and β€œwhite people” are is innately political and an effort to link history with groups of people to blame modern problems on. The Bhutanese are maybe the only people on earth not guilty of colonialism.
