    Yeah, nothing more important than maintaining the empire right? A bit of genocide is just a necessary part of being a “centrist”

        Sadly the entire western world depends on the US as a stable and rational actor.

        The “western world” is imperialist, and the rest of the world would be better off without the “stability” allowing it to plunder them.

        This is bigger than you.

        This is bigger than the imperial core, which represents a minority of the world in terms of population, landmass, natural resources, and production.

        But I guess you are willing to sacrifice other nations for ideological purity.

        I’m not the one saying that we have to keep supporting genocide to maintain the nation destroying empire.

        And who is offering a controlled demolition? Certainly not the genocidal “centrists”

                  and you define imperialists as anyone born on the wrong side of an imaginary line. if you think there’s a magical politician that hasn’t supported imperialism somewhere, i could take five minutes to show receipts if i didn’t think you were just arguing for arguments’ sake

                    ???

                    What the fuck are you talking about. You literally said that maintaining the empire is important to you, important enough to excuse genocide
