MODERATORS
Do you view the United States as an imperialist power? Either currently or in it's past? If in it's past at what point do you believe it stopped behaving as an imperialist nation.
This is foundational level of understanding the world we live in and it's history, how that history got us to the present political climate. And if you're reaction to someone trying to have a conversation about it is to lash out like you have, then I have to ask another question.
Who is the idiot here?
Doesn't matter. I can tell you're a Chinese agitator (or got conned by Chinese agitators) because you just...can't help yourself. You have to start throwing in their code words. China is still early in their digital psychological warfare stage, they're too rigidly top-down controlled. The Russians have art and style at least.
You're trying to discuss with me whether the US is imperialist, and I'm telling you we're past all of that. We're past where facts matter. We're into the meta-discussion now. You will never listen to any arguments, because your masters won't allow it. So there's no point arguing.
So "imperialism" is a Chinese code word? You can't imagine anyone else talking or thinking about imperialism without them working for the Chinese government?
What arguments? You saw "imperialism" and immediately shut down, refusing to engage or say anything of substance.
You're certainly not helping.
Criticize China, then.
