The lie of assimilation with an oppressor

The most dangerous thing that you can have in relation to the westerners. I mean, generally speaking, it's one of the most dangerous things you can have, but particularly in relation to westerners, western so called civilization, and to those who are oppressing you. The worst and most dangerous quality that you can have is an inferiority complex. Because then you will try to assimilate with the people who are oppressing you. You'll try to appease them.

You'll try to acquiesce to them, and you'll try to emulate them, and you'll try to be like them. But they will still never accept you, and you are now integrating into your own psyche their paradigms, their worldview, their definitions, their perspectives. And in their worldview, in their paradigms, in their perspectives, in their definitions, you are inferior. So you are now integrating into your own mindset, your own inferiority according to the definitions of those who are persecuting and oppressing you. They'll never let you actually stop being defined as the other.

They'll never let you stop being defined as, an outsider. They'll never let you stop being defined as a so called minority.
