    I kinda hate how so many libs online are having a meltdown saying fascism has started in the US now while they have been exporting death everywhere for decades and still live on stolen land acquired by genocide. It’s only them that are the targets now.

      Well, that is what fascism ultimately is: imperialism turned inward.

      They never had a problem with the death and destruction so long as it was foreigners dying and foreign lands being destroyed. Now it’s their coworkers and their neighborhoods and suddenly there’s an urgent, pressing concern to act. And even then they can’t find the courage to do anything more than walk around shouting dumb slogans for a few hours until the KKKops gas them.

      I’ve always thought the most immoral people are the ones who ignore suffering rather than inflict it. Liberals just reinforce this belief with their every deed and action.

        I think thats true for a lot of Western liberals generally. But a lot of liberals still do care about the wellbeing about people in other countries. They just have no actual comprehension about imperialism as a system and how they benefit from it as citizens of empire. Not saying their ignorance is excusable, but it’s what allows their compassion to be weaponized at whatever foreign boogeyman is next in empire’s scope. (“The Ukraine War is Russia’s fault,” “Uyghurs,” “Trump kidnapping Maduro is wrong but Maduro is still a meanie poo-poo head”)
