To defeat the state, we in the core of imperialism need to make U.S. hegemony too weakened for our ruling class to be able to use it to hold back revolution. And to cripple the beast by attacking it from within its heart, we need to take away the social base Washington depends on to be able to maintain its global war machine; that social base being the U.S. working class.

    Fed behavior is reinforcing the western imperialist narrative on the Russia-NATO conflict under the guise of ostensibly leftist language or treating it as some kind of “both sides bad” situation.

      That doesn’t make it incorrect.

      (I’m also not aware the fed interpretation of the conflict is “both sides bad” so… that’s a curious thought)

        Feds know they can’t convince socialists that NATO is good but it is enough for them if they convince you that both Russia and NATO are bad and that neither deserves your support.

          @cfgaussian So in this logic, one is convinced that Nato is bad, but Nato still somehow wins. It wins, you see, by losing.

          Man, I don’t miss arguing with fundies.

          @cfgaussian You know, I just realized this is the exact same argument used against “both parties are equally bad”

            That is a false analogy.
