What does it mean to “refuse to engage with” imperialism? Imperialism as a system is the dominant force on the globe right now, headed by the US and its vassals in Europe. I’m not “excusing” Russian capitalists for exploiting their neighbors, I critically support Russia’s progressive role in undermining imperialism as a system by opposing NATO and building up alternatives to western dominated finance capital. This is giving the global south more breathing room.
Yeah, I refuse to engage with the economic system of imperialism.
Meanwhile, you’re
excusingsupporting Russian capitalist billionaires exploiting their neighbors. As a “leftist.”And I’m the one who doesn’t understand imperialism.

Actually you engage with it every time you put gas in your tank or buy bananas at the store, you just prefer to be in denial about that.
Duh doy.
I was being sarcastic.
