A: Is this happening?

A:They are coming to deconstruct the system.                         
B: Who?

A: Those political controllers and occupiers.
B: Isn’t that the same? Construction and Deconstruction.      

A: Yes. They thought we need to be reconstructed and with this reasoning took away our languages without shame. They rewrote our history and dismantled our traditions.
A: They stole our artifacts and reappropriated them in their institutions.   

B: We need to reclaim them.
A: How?
B: They can’t represent us.  Never.

A: They call us The Others.   
A: You see, they can’t even see their own reflections.  They put themselves too high up.
A: They collected our ideas, our labors and knowledge claiming that we were being misrepresented and now, they are representing us.

B: But this land belong to us.
B: Our ideas, labors and knowledge need to be known and credited. 


A: It is dehumanising that one must feel superior than the Others.
B: Can this be undone?
A: It may or may not.  Depends.
A: Do you think it is possible?
B: of what?

A: Possible to be deconstructed.
B: Not from them.  

A: Don’t they think this is highly inappropriate? 
B: What is?


A: How can they not know this is problematic?
A: So, do you think it is really happening?

B: I don’t know. 
B: The situation is suspicious.  


B: I don’t trust them.
