Colonized and colonizer can never value the same thing together

Evidence

It is because they fail to grasp this intellectual reality, this characteristic feature (the famous sensitivity of the colonized), that the colonizers rage at always “doing them good in spite of themselves.” Colonialism wants everything to come from it. But the dominant psychological feature of the colonized is to withdraw before any invitation of the conqueror’s. — Frantz Fanon, A Dying Colonialism, 213 (#exemplifies, via linked claim)
