It’ll probably taper off in the next weeks or so.

Edit - Probably what’s most misunderstood is when the term liberal is applied. Not at all times they mean the Democratic Party and its supporters.

You don’t need to be a Big L - Liberal to uphold liberalism. Republicans can uphold liberalism. Tory supporters can uphold liberalism.

It’s an ideology tied to extreme individualism, reformism, those who can believe society will progress through individual action, devoid of any stances combating activism.

For ex: individuals who want women to be in the same position of power as men w/o questioning the oppressive nature of these positions of power that oppress women from the working class. Under liberalism: Thatcher, Melania Trump, Giorgia Meloni are Girlbosses. Does this ring true to anyone?

Liberalism as an ideology propagates the idea that if given “equal opportunities” in life, then it is up to people to grab those opportunities to have a better life.

But we understand that hard work is not enough because if so, then hired hands and workers should be rich by now, but they are not.

Because exploitation exists, oppressive systems in our society exist. That’s one of the many limits of liberalism as an ideology. it has no class analysis.

Liberalism depends on reformism to advance a society, but reformism is not enough. You see news about social democracies backsliding into fascist politicians. But these social democracies also rely on poorer countries for their raw resources for their welfare states to run(like gold and tantalum and Libya bombing thing). Until how long can we reform a broken government?

But to try to paint the East Global South as the answer to stand against the West is dangerous and dumb

damn you sound like a chauv lol

just say you don’t like the Asianic horde

go full mask-off

It’s not a matter of liking the US but how it affects my country, that’s how I know about American politics.

Their Internal politics influence foreign policy and economic exchange tied to the dollar.

On the contrary, Americans tend to be myopic about foreign policy because it doesn’t affect them.

That’s why I don’t care about the Democratic-Republican political theater, they have the same foreign policy anyway (neoliberal imperialism).

Biden claims to be pro-LGBT for example, yet upholds the same US military that brutally abuses and kills transpeople, women and children abroad. Do you still think that it’s as simple as

It is not even that surprising, every country that was in war with US involved is not liking it, no one likes other nation’s army on their teritory, whatever the reason.

whatever the reason.

liking or disliking on a whim, like a high school crush? PSY faced so much backlash when it was revealed that he made an Anti-American song a decade before Gangnam Style, but the American press conviniently all forgot about the events that influenced it.

An American tank crushed two Korean teens walking on public road to go to a party.

no one likes other nation’s army on their teritory, whatever the reason.

The servicemen got away scot-free.
