from March 2022. kinda curious if they're still bravely crushing Putin with this amazing display of idealist power
This can be seen with the situation with the Uyghurs. Liberals believe that China is committing a literal Holocaust 2.0, and instead of arresting the executives of Nike and other companies that apparently use genocidal slave labor and executing them for crimes against humanity, they just want to fine the companies until they move their production to another exploitative country like India or Vietnam.
Their activism is about consuming with good optics.
They don't even do that with the Uyghur thing. They have no interest at all addressing the supposed genocide, or even being seen to be trying to resist it. The idea of it only exists at the level of anti-China rhetoric, it is not connected to the world in any other way.
