      I think you are doing what the same thing a far right guy would do. Give money to the guys handling your ideas ;-)

        People who defend the US and its empire are the “authoritarians”

          That moment when you pretend to fight against imperialism - by implicitly supporting imperialists in the PRC.

            The PRC are literally not imperialist you brainwashed goon. This is what is so frustrating about communicating with Americans who live under totalitarian mind control of your state, you believe ridiculous unprovable nonsense and are smug shit heads about it.

              I don’t know, claiming parts of other counties as their own on official maps seems pretty imperialist to me. I also don’t know what your definition of totalitarian is if you believe the US is totalitarian. I’ve heard claims of authoritarianism before, but claims of totalitarianism make even less sense. It seems like an effort to render a word meaningless by misusing it.

              America is imperialist, as is China, Russia, and every other major world power. It’s just what large states tend to do. I suspect MLs view imperialism only through the lens of capitalism, when imperialism far predates capitalism. Capitalist imperialism is only one form of an empire projecting its power.

                The US is a totalitarian state with full mind control over everyone where you can’t even entertain ideas that don’t fit into your ultra right wing neoliberal overton window.

                  I don’t know, I’ve met plenty of American tankies, anarchists, socialists, and communists. This is some real “reject the evidence of your eyes and ears” level shit. I can’t twist reality into enough of a pretzel to make this viewpoint have any validity. It’s laughable.

                    American communists are not in any sort of political power and are destroyed when they do anything. There is no American left. You all live under a totalitarian system and you are so blinded by liberalism you can’t even recognize the total and complete social control you can never escape from.

                    Want to know how I know the US is a prison? Ask literally any American why they don’t move to another country.

                  I bet you also believe America sent genetically engineered super mutants soldiers to Ukraine to overthrow Russian freedumbs.

                    No, I believe the US uses its vast military to destabilize regions to guarantee weapons sales. Fuck you with this bullshit

              First of all, not American.

              Second of all, nine-dash line and neo-colonialism in Asia, Africa, South America and Europe says very differently. As does the Han supremacism that Xi surrepitously perpetuates.

              China is imperialist to a degree, but they’re certainly not invading countries all over the place like the US. People here like to claim that bringing up the US is whataboutism even though the US is the prime example of imperialism currently and the US likes to preemptively point at China and Russia to distract from their own actions.
