the author realizes there's something wrong with ascribing the natives a disadvantaged position, but can't help doing it himself?
Yes! Like, "oh it is unfair that we always show the natives preferring, like, trees over gold" or whatever. But then this is also imposing a value system on the natives. It is implied that the natives should value what the colonists value, because the natives' own value system is dumb. I dunno, maybe the article will get deeper into this later. I guess what the article is saying is not that the natives' values should change, but that they should be more... aware, or know how to avoid the colonists' tricks. But the two are related; I wonder how to go about deconstructing the issue.

The Latin American stereotypes of Latin America is really fascinating. Most articulations of the arguments against racism and cultural bigotry that I've seen are white vs. brown, but totally yes, there are yellow vs. brown, yellow vs. black, black vs. brown, but I don't see those discussed as often as white vs. everyone else. Indonesians vs. Malaysians, Malays vs. Chinese, Malays vs. West Papuans, etc.
