It’s not “doing imperialist shit” from time to time as you say. It’s imperialist as a foundational aspect. Its goal is to secure US imperialist world order. It’s as defensive as Israel’s existence. Defense against “the enemy” (which goes back and forth between Russia and China these days) is pure consent manufacturing.
Sometimes, the enemy of my enemy isn’t my friend. It’s just another asshole bickering with the first asshole.
To address this, sure. The way that maga people are also against democrats. But this situation is not that. Aligning with the US only serves the US imperialist order and MIC capitalists. US wields the largest military force in the world, 800+ bases on every continent, all major financial institutions. Russia and China do not. Dismantling this order is of utmost importance for the liberation of people worldwide. This is why alignement away from US and towards global south is crucial for Europes future.
Russia, unlike the West, supports liberation movements in the Global South
