      Well obviously the Untermenschen Asiatic hordes totalitarian regimes can’t possibly offer anything good or thoughtful or have legitimate concerns! Obviously it’s just a ploy and propaganda!

        You know, it’s one thing to call Russia and China “totalitarian regimes” when they have been propagandized to about specifically them for so long.

        It’s another thing to call the REST of Asia and the ENTIRETY of Africa and South America “totalitarian regimes” when you KNOW 99% of the motherfuckers have never heard even a single headline about 80%+ of these countries.

        It is just pure garden vs jungle racism. They really think their golden billion is the pure democratic good guys and that the other 6.5 billion people in the world, the VAST majority of people in the world, are ALL stupid and/or evil.

        It makes me both amused and sick when people will spend their entire domestic political discussions talking about how democracy in the West has been dying for decades (particularly USA), but as soon as the conversation leaves the garden even the most “left wing” of these worthless hamburgers will tout the conflict as “democracy vs authoritarianism.” Even when I was teetering dangerously close to shitlibbery I was never under the illusion that the US was a democracy whatsoever. This is fucking batshit.

          I think directly calling it the colonizer mentality is more effective.

        I always had apprehensions regarding the use of the word tribalism and these articles voiced those concerns really well.

          Don’t sweat it. It’s pretty widespread language and its hardly your fault we are saturated in these things. Certainly your point stands.

          I think “us vs them” is difficult because sometimes it is brought up to say “we are all in this together” or such things, which is not always the case, or at least it is more complicated than that. It can be used to disregard, oversimplify, or otherwise unfairly delegitemize polarity that exists as a way of ignoring opposition. Like with climate change, it is mostly the doing of rich capitalist countries so it is probably ok if the global south makes that distinction known.

          Of course this is not to say we should be “othering” people. You probably don’t need me to tell you any if this tho I’m just blabbing.

          I might call it colonialial mentality like was mentioned. Or maybe racism, or orientalism. Europe has done a good job of failing denazification so you could refer to it in that light as well.

    Lib logic

    Those that suffered from the atrocities of nazis and continue to oppose it are the real nazis

    The mostly white and few honorary aryans who flirt with it are true free democracies

      i just got an aneurysm when i read the comments of people saying “if all western first world nations are against it, then they must be right”.

      literally abandoning any reasoning, “we did it and thus it is right because WE did it”

        That main protagonist mindset lol. Hard to confront the reality of being the ‘bad guys’ when instead they could paint themselves as righteous even after defending nazis lol
