She's amazing.
Has she ever pointed out that the main economic reason that the US needs Israel is to destabilize Middle Eastern countries with large oil reserves? I think that's a really powerful argument for her audience and I'm a little sad not to see her explain that connection here.
Honestly, I'm glad to see a change. For all my life, I've heard "oil oil oil" behind every US action, and while that might be part of the thing, it's far from the whole picture and her tweet calling imperialism by its name is kinda what we need if you ask me
True, but imperialism is a pretty abstract concept and a general audience always does better to understand what it means concretely. Most people think imperialism means any kind of military conflict between a big country and a small country, not the monopoly stage of capitalism.
