Maybe to most Conservative westerners. I’m always a little puzzled about why people around the world seem to think American = Redneck Republican. At least that’s what comes through on social media. But I guess it’s only fair, since we think French = Snotty Waiters, Australian = Crocodile Dundee, etc.
The issue is that there are also many “progressives” who are like this, ex: supporting the kidnapping of the president of Venezuela or the invasion of Iran. Just because someone might be less bigoted to queer people or immigrants it doesn’t mean they’re any less imperialist, unfortunately. And this isn’t just a problem over there of course, I know too many people from my country who side with our comprador elite rather than workers like them.

Liberal westerners are no better on this
Would it make any difference if they thought all yanks were vote genocide no matter who radlibs?
