Yeah if we’re going to lionize Niemöller the better story would be of him returning to Dachau and being critical of his silence from 1933 to 1937 when he was silent about the camps until he himself was put in one.

discussed this in the last chapter of my book academic.oup.com/book/62722/c...

However, the commitment to opposing colonial violence everywhere also
means one has to work with ethical and strategic tensions. A pertinent
illustration of this is how Palestine activists responded to the Trump administration’s fund freeze of foreign aid. This resulted in the shutdown of
Whynot (歪脑), a Chinese-language news magazine affiliated with Radio
Free Asia (RFA). Kite and Olive issued a strongly worded statement to condemn the hypocrisy in Whynot’s coverage of Israel and Palestine despite the
magazine’s ‘state-sanctioned progressivism’. Calling RFA, which was funded
by the US Agency for Global Media until Trump’s termination of grants,
complicit in imperialist wars, it argues that the fact that media organizations like RFA amplify ‘the voices of those resisting oppression in nonWestern countries’ does not change its fundamental nature, and that ‘no
great power is the saviour of the oppressed’.⁴⁴ In the broader discussion
of the consequences of the fund freeze, however, other collectives used
social media to call attention to the dire situation this put into Uyghur
and Tibetan communities and pro-democratic activists in Myanmar, as well
as the humanitarian crisis caused by the halting to development aid. The
strong condemnation of US imperialism in the context of Palestine does
not need to preclude the recognition that the empire’s selective support
for human rights in some cases provides a much-needed lifeline for antiauthoritarians and persecuted groups who have little other resources to rely
on.
An organizer who relocated to Europe from China reflected on how the
proximity to different structures of oppression has shaped the direction of
their political energy. They recalled that when residing in China and Southeast Asia, their politics focused more squarely on local regimes and did not
involve a strong rejection of Voice of America or RFA as tools of liberal imperialism. ‘In a certain reality and from a certain position’, they noted, ‘RFA was definitely …

Taiwan's Indigenous peoples are the original owners of this land. Yet new settlers referred to them as "savages" and "mountain compatriots." Name rectification came in 1997 through a constitutional amendment. Aug 1 declared Indigenous Peoples' Day in 2005. Siraya just recognized as the 17th tribe.

Indigenous peoples are the original owners of Taiwan. Nevertheless since more than four hundred years ago, they have been reigned by foreign regimes and given different names. For instance, during the rule of the Qing Dynasty, indigenous peoples were called “fan”, meaning barbarian. Qing used the term ‘cooked/tamed/civilized fan’ for those who had pledged their allegiance, and ‘raw/wild/uncivilized fan’ to define those people who had not submitted to Qing rule. During Japanese rule, the Japanese government referred to them as ‘fan’ or ‘Takasago-zoku’. During the early period of Chinese Nationalist Kuomintang(KMT) rule, the term ‘shanbao’, meaning ‘mountain compatriots’, was invented. All these terms are discriminatory, stigmatized and invented by the rulers. Indigenous peoples themselves did not have the right to determine their own names.
