    None of the individual fascist footsoldiers on the eastern front had political power either. Together they perpetrated a world-historical slaughter in the name of nation and race. I’m sure many of them would say the same thing. Perhaps some didn’t even support nazism, and were simply trying individually to get by. Collectively, they were nazism’s instruments regardless of their individual reasoning.

    You individual calculus for supporting what you did does not matter here. It is less than a grain of sand on the tides of history. What matters is the political bloc you bound yourself to by your support, and the genocide that many such individual bindings served to legitimize. For one reason or another, you chose to become a single snowflake in an avalanche of death and inhumanity. The why does not matter, only the what.

    No, the Republicans were simply repeating the phrase “glass the middle east” with their eyes rolled back in ecstasy. Compared to that, the Victorian-era racism of liberals trying to bring civilization spread democracy got a pass for sounding slightly less hitlerian. This dynamic may sound familiar

    You trust fire to keep you warm when you’re camping, even after all the people it’s burned to death?

    Trust is not a binary, and talking about “trusting” a government like I would trust a friend is classic liberal political illiteracy. Plants, animals, natural phenomena, laws of physics: I trust everything to act according to it’s nature, and in the case of thinking beings and organizations I trust them to act in their interests. If I know what their interest is, I can trust my predictions. Where those interests overlap, there is a basis for cooperation. This is why, for example, leftists are able to critically support groups like Hamas while liberals remain hamstrung by racist suspicion: leftists understand that despite the differences we have these groups can be trusted to act against our common enemy out of a shared interest in survival and self-determination. Liberals demand impossible perfection from resistance while tolerating outright fascism from their own side, but delude themselves into thinking they are “equally critical” of all sides. Nobody believes you when you do this.

    Oh that’s right, just YOUR selection of governments would never lie nope. Only the Americans ever lie lol

    Yet more projection from the “facts are Russian propaganda” people, the people who conveniently believe every atrocious lie their government tells about the designated enemy of the week when it’s important, only to turn around when it’s too late to matter and say “well of course I never believed that.” Opposing every aggression except the current one, pretending to be impartial while acting predictably as “reluctant” cheerleaders of empire under the Churchillian delusion that “our government is the worst, except for all the others”. It would be so much less disgusting if you would simply be honest with yourselves about being partisans for western empire like the rest of the right wingers, but instead you cling to this threadbare pretense of being above political struggle when anyone with eyes in their fucking head can see exactly what side you’re on. People might be less sick of you if you didn’t insist on endlessly projecting your bashful supremacist mindset onto people with actual morals and knowledge, who practice actual criticism instead of just cosplaying it.

    Go read a single book and evolve out of the larval fascist stage your political development has been arrested at, and leave geopolitical analysis to the ideological adults.

    Free Palestine.

    Dawg you guys OPENLY VOTED for genocide not even 2 years ago, is your memory that poor? Biden/Harris oversaw the incineration of countless thousands, supporting it the whole way, arming it, repeating disgusting blood libel about Hamas mass rapes and 40 beheaded babies to justify it, and sending riot cops to beat us down when we protested.

    Some leftists were reading out the names of murdered Palestinian kids at the DNC and these liberal freaks fucking plugged their ears and/or laughed because they know they crossed the rubicon, they know they’re fucking nazis.

    You actively voted for a pro-genocide candidate, you hemmed and hawwed, equivocating and condemning resistance until the evil was undeniable, and then you fell silent, and now you’re pretending to have always been against this. As the Arabic saying goes, you killed the victim and now march in his funeral. You made your bed, now you must lie in it
