I do not understand this.
That text seems kind of funny, like that's literally what everyone believes though. Liberals will constantly spew shit about "western values" or modern worldview or whatever and it's always just conveniently the imperial core.
This bit seems incredibly reductive lol.
Guess I'm a camp counsellor
It's insane how much of neoliberal political ideology is built on hypotheticals
It really is just bog standard liberal arguing tactics. The hypothetical of "Would you still support them if they did something completely pointless and evil for no reason?" is a favourite of theirs. They can't judge them based on their actions because it would reveal their own double standard, so they have to judge them based on them hypothetically being worse. Which is nice and easy because you can always imagine a hypothetical where the enemy team does something worse than your team.
So it's just a derogatory way of saying "anti-imperialist"
functionally. it would have different connotations if there was actual multipolarity
We are proud campists
I had a nap under a tree out in the woods the other day, I wasn't camping out there though, is that close enough though?
