That’s pretty much like the norm for Anti-Tankies and Left Anti-Communists, they will almost always side with US-NATO and condemn the BRICS+ almost all the time when it comes about world politics and geopolitical issues…

    Their idea is that the rest of the world is culturally and politically inferior to the west, and only the West can enlighten them. Anything that night threaten that illusion they take it personally, even if it is an economic bloc. The idea that someone somewhere can choose an alternative to western finance and technology is a threat. The idea that ‘rogue’ states have options is a threat.

      This point right here ties into why it’s so godawful expensive to renounce one’s citizenship(in an economy where the average Amerikan can’t afford a $1000 emergency expense, no less), and why they’ll still come to raid your pockets for taxes after the fact on some banditry shit. When you’re born Amerikan, they want you to know this is the only option you have. They want you to perceive, in every way, that this is this the only option you have.

      Same chamber of their misbegotten hearts that the “you know they’re racist against $yourRace/homophobic/transphobic/this-that-and-the-third” slander comes from.

      White people realizing imperialism, slavery, colonialism and the destruction they brought isn’t actually logical human nature
