      Colonialism isn’t colonising.

      Colonising is the act of sending people to settle a place.

      Colonialism is when you send those people to take someone else’s place.

      You can colonise a place that no one owns, such as space and that’s cool.

      Its meant in the sense: better build communities in the fediverse rather than on Mars. Its a pun on “Colonize Mars”
