yeah, i think they think maybe that ‘turtle island’ is bad, only the few bad apples of all indigenous peoples use it; then the rest must prefer the only alternative, i.e. the default, i.e. the status quo, i.e. what is in their material interest

why can’t other indigenous groups prefer turtle island even if it isn’t their ideal name? why would it be thought that an indigenous group/tribe/band would be spoken for by settler-colonials instead of engage in solidarity with one another, especially other’s who share the same goals?
