European descendants erased and transferred colonial attachment after leaving Java

Evidence

The Europeans’ worries were expressed mainly in aggressive terms: respect for the rights of the minority, respect for culture, for religion. On every point the Moslems gave their reply. And as in a psychodrama, the aggressiveness would disappear with the anxiety. I was able to observe that this easing of tension occurred when the Moslems declared: “You are Algerians, just as we are, but if you want to leave the country you are free to do so.” And the Europeans would always answer, “We don’t want to leave and we don’t want to be strangers in this country.” — Frantz Fanon, A Dying Colonialism, 563 (#complicates, via linked claim)
