Indigenism

Indigenism is a Left Unity ideology that believes in a kind of ethnic and/or cultural nationalism that emphasizing the group's indigeneity to their homeland. It focuses on indigenous Americans as a people, and a desire to have their land and customs returned to them. Reparations for the injustices served toward their people are also often demanded by indigenous groups. While this can be representative of numerous indigenous rights movements across the world. It typically represents the various indigenous activist and autonomist groups within North America and sometimes South America.

Personality
'''Hunt buffalo, smoke peace pipe, kill colonists. Restore the traditional ways and our sacred land. -  Indigenism Ball '''

Due to the lack of sovereignty for their people, the continued stealing of their land, being tokenized and having been entirely disregarded by the interests of most other radicals. They are often seen as extremely cynical or depressed, often depicted as being extremely drunk with a bottle of whiskey. They also sometimes are seen smoking traditional Tobacco from a pipe.

Usually are not very friendly nor invested in the plight of other balls due to the belief that they only seek to forcefully implement their ideology on their stolen territory and thus lives an Isolated, modest lifestyle within a small reserve of like-minded individuals. This is partially due to why they are often not known well much by other balls. The only balls they seem to deeply resonate with is Neozapatismo and  Moralesism seeing them as some of the last true revolutionaries in the Americas and a beacon of light in the darkness.

While they are not inherently racist or discriminatory (oftentimes being profoundly anti-racist) they often have mixed feelings about outsiders especially due to them usually being ignorant and not caring about their history and culture, thus often preferring to live away from them within their own territories.

Often seeing the outsiders as invaders he desires sovereignty for his people, if not full out Self-Determination from colonial governments.

They are known to be somewhat spiritual, and often are seeking to spread their Teachings and Traditions to fellow indigenous balls and prophecizes that one day if they are not able to protect their traditions, fight for their land and secure their independence, the colonizers will eventually destroy their land and their way of life altogether. Because of this, they tend to also be extremely environmentally protectionist, often wanting to protect their environment and homes from interference from large corporations.

Friends

 * [[File: Blacknat.png]] Black Nationalism - You face a similar struggle. Sorry for the whole slavery thing, some of us were also enslaved, that said, others among us did fight with the confederate colonizers, and even a few of us kept slaves of our own, and for that, I apologize. I am happy we could put aside our differences and unite against our oppressors in The Rainbow Coalition.
 * [[File: Zapa.png]] Neozapatismo - A living example that what we want is possible.
 * [[File:Soc21.png]] Socialism of the 21st Century - So far one of the few "revolutionaries" that actually seem to care for us.
 * [[File:Econat.png]] Eco-Nationalism - Turtle Island is scared. And we must protect it from being destroyed by those who wish to profit from its demise.
 * [[File:PagTheo.png]] Native American Spirituality - The Spirits demand justice for what has been done to our traditional way of life! Our ancestor's teachings must be preserved for our future generations!
 * [[File:Progconf.png]] Progressive Conservatism - Fighting for our traditional way of life our ancestors have followed!
 * [[File:Isolationist.png]] Isolationism - The outsiders refuse to respect our traditional way of life and the ways of our land, so we must make a community of our own to protect what little we have left! Our lives were better when outsiders didn't force themselves into lands that didn't belong to them!
 * [[File:Sep.png]] Separatism - We never willingly ceded our land, it was stolen!
 * [[File:Dawronoyeicon.png]] Dawronoye - Me but in the Middle East. TIHE BETHNAHRIN!
 * [[File:Horshu.png]] Horseshoe Centrism - It does not matter what colored banner the outsider's wave, and whatever book they bring so as to "save" us. Without a deep connection to the soil and our strife, they are just like any other colonial invader.

Frenemies

 * [[File: Leftnat.png]] Left-Wing Nationalism - I watch them fight, and die, in the name of freedom. They speak of liberty and justice. But for who?
 * [[File: ML.png]] Marxism–Leninism - Sharing is our tradition, but why should we have to happily share our labor with colonizers? (Hey, the Incans had a planned economy)
 * [[File: Awaj.png]] Western Anarchism - Although many of our ancestors have followed this ideal tradition in our own way. It's easy for you Westerners to want to tear everything down if you have no connection to the land.
 * [[File:Guevara.png]] Guevarism - We want national liberation, but not your kind. Yes, while [[File:Zapa.png]] some of us admire you as a symbol of resistance of Western imperialism, we understand that your fight, however noble, has always been tainted, having long since forgotten your unique upbringing, and who had uprooted your ancestor's unique ways and traditions to instead follow in the footsteps of another imperialist empire with a different banner, embracing the same expansionist mindsets which betray your ancestor's history as your own, entirely deluded by the rhetoric of that empire and it's assertions of progress, sovereignty, and anti-colonial liberation such proclaims to bring to the world so as to justify such expansion.
 * [[File: Hind.png]] Hindu Theocracy - Why do people confuse us for each other?
 * [[File:Odal.png]] Odalism - You've got SOME good ideas, but your WAY too extreme, and you talk WAY too much about your people, paleface. (and you were the first European that tried to steal our land)
 * [[File:Multicult.png]] Multiculturalism - We used to love to help share killing outsiders, but now we see, that historically, it has never ended well for us. Also, you threaten to destroy my way of life altogether thanks to [[File: Neoliberal-icon.png]] him.
 * [[File:LiberationTheo.png]] Liberation Theology - A misguided soul, you claim to want to protect my people, yet at the same time embrace the false gods the colonizers forced us to worship and you call us trying to revive our ways "savage".
 * [[File:Ethcac.png]] Ethnocacerism - You may be one of us, and speak truth when you talk about protecting our traditions and people from genocide. But your ways are no better than any other of the colonialist invaders.
 * [[File:Flang.png]] Falangism - You want to rebuild your [[File:Cball-Spanish_Empire.png]] empire, but at least you have claimed to have learned from the mistakes of your ancestors, and seemingly respect us as well as treat us as equals. Though your supremacist nature deeply concerns me and many of my people and makes us question your true intentions.
 * [[File:Soul.png]] Soulism - While we appreciate the sentiment that you admire our way of life, you remind us far too much of prior "new-age" plastic shamans and seem far too fascinated by certain aspects of our history for all the wrong reasons.

Enemies

 * [[File:Showa-kanmuri.png]] Showa Statism - While I respect that you had preserved some of you traditions inherited from a few of the Jomon you assimilated, you're fundamentally just any other expansionist trespasser, and your empires legacy will forever be stained by the blood of the Jomon, Ainus, Ryukyuans, and Austronesians you slaughtered!
 * [[File:Front.png]] Anarcho-Frontierism - Dirty colonist! We'll scalp you!
 * [[File: Whitesup.png]] White Nationalism - I am tired of your ignorance paleface, You always play the victim, with your "homelands" supposedly being "replaced" with outsiders who "destroy" your "indigenous" European cultures, yet surprisingly, never seem to give that same level of concern towards those who actually are the endangered indigenous inhabitants of Europe, such as the Sámi, Komi, Basques, or the Sorbians. If you're so upset that I am reclaiming the pride, history, and traditions of my people's native homelands against invaders, maybe, as you would say, "go back to where you came from"?
 * [[File: Nazi.png]] National Socialism & [[File:SL.png]] Silver Legionism - You did what the colonialists did to me but in Europe, CRINGE! Do not look up Elwood Towner...
 * [[File: Neoliberal-icon.png]] Neoliberalism - Modern colonialism. No thanks.
 * [[File:World.png]] Globalism - How does trying to protect my sovereignty from imperialism make me racist?
 * [[File:Imp.png]] Imperialism - The colonialist powers will never be forgiven for what they did to us.
 * [[File:3way.png]] Third Way, [[File:NatProg-0.png]] Bull Moose Progressivism and [[File:Statlib.png]] State Liberalism - Imperialism with a "woke" face.
 * [[File:3way.png]] [[File:NatProg-0.png]] [[File:Statlib.png]] YES! *all three laugh*
 * [[File: Necon.png]] Neoconservatism - Well, at least you admit you're an imperialist conservative, I will give you that.
 * [[File:Christy.png]] Christian Theocracy - You were responsible for destroying our traditions and way of life!
 * [[File:Trumpism.png]] Trumpism - "Go back to where you came from?" Well, would you look at that? I’m already there! And cry harder about those burned churches.
 * [[File:Biopos.png]] Bio-Posadism - I should have never accepted those blankets from those colonists!
 * [[File: React.png]] Reactionarism - Sure, let's return to simpler times. How about pre-1492?
 * [[File:React.png]] - Hmm, maybe I should...
 * [[File:Plcn2.png]] Paleoconservatism - Fake anti-imperialist. You still want to force WASP values on me. And opposing future expansion is not enough, since you don't want to undo past expansion and return out lands.
 * [[File:Esofash.png]] Esoteric Fascism - Reactionary imperialist wignat who is a fake spiritualist.
 * [[File:Theodemocracy.png]] Theodemocracy - My people have lived in these lands since time immemorial, your racist pseudohistory will not convince me otherwise.
 * [[File:Neolud.png]] Neoluddism & [[File:Radfem.png]] Radical Feminism - We don’t need your Western-centric philosophies that have no respect for our two-spirit kind, alongside your White Deep Green Resistance "movement". Your Western-centric philosophy erases our culture or at best sees us as "noble savages".
