True leftism is “when America bad” and the more “America bad” you spout, the more to the left you are. Having nuanced and principled opinions is inferior to campism, gotcha.
The US has 800+ external military bases. All other countries combined have < 20.
US imperialism, and more specifically, the division of the world into rich and poor countries (which US imperialism upholds with its military, dollar hegemony, and media dominance), is the primary evil in the world today.
When you accuse people pointing this out, of being “campist un-nuanced america-hating tankies”, you’re just showing your ignorance of the reality of images like the one above.
You can call it “nuance” all you want, it doesn’t change that such a critical stance is always rooted in state department propaganda.
Western “leftists” trust imperialists more than foreign PoC, which surprises nobody.
So instead, we should trust… The other ogliarchic and blatantly fascist empires?
Call me crazy, but I don’t think unapologetic fascism is “leftist.”
Why do you believe the US and anglophone-media when they demonize their main enemies, and say that they’re no different? You should take anything a serial liar says with an extreme grain of salt.
leftists when they claim to be anti imperialist but just support the other empire, your view of those things align with what the russian state wants you to think
> imperialism is when invading other countries
> russia invades ukraine
> russia isn’t imperialist

The absolute minimum you could do is attempt to understand what Imperialism actually is. Imperialism isn’t “invasion,” it’s a form of international extraction similar to nation scale bourgeois/proletarian relations. The fact that you’re trying to redefine Imperialism as “invasion” to make someone who linked a good source outlining what Imperialism actually is in order to make the person you replied to seem hypocritical is the peak of dishonesty.
There’s a difference in hating/disliking people because of unchangeable circumstances and hating regimes.
Ah yes, Ukraine’s right to self determination after the west overthrows the democratically elected government and turns it into a literal dictatorship where elections have been cancelled. Thank you for providing a human face to the meme.
Citizens in China of all ethnicities are satisfied with their government, even Harvard, Pew, and Statista quote a number higher than 90%.
If they’re authoritarian, what is Klanada, where like 30% were satisfied with the government but all their options are somehow “the same” or “more nazi”?
Is it really so hard for yall to believe that Everybody Sucks Here?
