Technically, as much as I dislike it, there is nothing in liberalism to predispose a person towards racism.

Then why are so many self-proclaimed liberals/pro-western people so goddamn racist/chauvinist towards anything eastern?

Furthermore, Eastern liberals often hate their own country and get a hard-on for NATO/US invading them.

    Because libs just vomit forth whatever ideology is necessary for advancing the material interests of the ruling class.

    The rate of profit has been declining for 50-60 years. The bourgeoisie demands imperialism. But saying “go die to make an oligarch richer” doesn’t work, so they’re cranking up the racism.

      This, this is the correct answer. Most people, if they can’t even do it intelligently or know the nuances, subconsciously they know what side their bread is buttered.
