This piece explores the common features of repression in post-colonial societies, highlighting the utter denial of the victims' relevance and the deep-seated spiritual death they experience. It examines the loss of interest in self-preservation among victims, their internalization of imposed limitations on freedom, and the profound isolation that colonization engenders. This isolation serves as both a tool and a consequence, resulting in intellectual and spiritual loneliness that further perpetuates the cycle of repression and denial.
