Colonization
Colonization is a process whereby The System is forcibly imposed on a population. Because most people do not wish to be enslaved into systems of productive relations that extract and centralize their energy, colonization is typically initiated with the use of force and violence. When violence has softened a population to a certain point, the process can be completed by implementing psychological archetypes that justify and legitimate new productive relations, and that also erase awareness of The System from the consciousness of those who are enslaved.

Notes
Colonization and Spirituality=
Colonization has "widely disrupted (and sometimes completely eradicated)" indigenous healing and spiritual traditions.[1]
Colonization has subjugated a "realm of health experience in which people's well-being depends on persistent relationships to particular landscape over time. Of special relevance to decolonization, such traditions frequently assume that much of the 'natural' world is animate and sentient, and that much of the power for maintaining human well-being depends on relationship with beings that inhabit specific places in the world."
