For once, I want to see one of these libs define imperialism. I know it’s not going to be in any way coherent, but I still want to see them at least try.
Imperialism is when countries do bad things to other countries. Depending on the lib, they will either excuse US imperialism of the global south by saying that wealth extraction is actually just free (🦅🦅🦅) trade or will acknowledge that the US is imperialist but is still better than those other imperialist countries because at least gay people have (some) rights (for now).
This is how I engage with libs. Authoritarian, Totalitarian, Imperialism, Democracy, Dictatorship, and so many other terms should be strictly defined and by forcing them to define those terms will expose them as the shallow thinkers they are, and give you a glimpse into how disjointed their perspective is.
When you definitely know what imperialism is.
