I asked ChatGPT: "what is settler colonialism"?

Here is the answer:

"Settler colonialism is a form of colonialism where the colonizers come to stay and establish a new society, often displacing or eliminating the existing indigenous populations. Unlike other forms of colonialism that primarily exploit resources and labor, settler colonialism involves the permanent settlement of the colonizers and the transformation of the land and society to reflect their own culture and governance."

So let's review:

"colonizers come to stay and establish a new society, "

Check - it's called "Zionism".

"often displacing or eliminating the existing indigenous populations. "

Check. It's called the Nakba, and it;'s still going on in Gaza and the West Bank.

Unlike other forms of colonialism that primarily exploit resources and labor, settler colonialism involves the permanent settlement of the colonizers and the transformation of the land and society to reflect their own culture and governance."

Check - it's called "Israel" and it is a Jewish State.

There's more:

"The goal is to replace the indigenous society with that of the settlers, which can lead to significant and lasting impacts on the indigenous populations".

Check. it's called "genocide", and it is going on right now.
