    Politics are inherently inseparable from economics.

    That doesn't get you from "Democratic Socialism" to "Imperialism", as evidenced by your own linked article.

    They absolutely align with the US because of their political organization.

    Per your own linked article, they remained neutral even after the end of WW2 and sympathized more with the Non-Aligned states than either of the two Superpowers.

    Nowhere have I argued that socialist structures benefit from imperialism.

    Alright, asshole. I think we're done.

      That's not an argument I made anywhere. What I keep telling you is that democratic socialism provides a veneer of democracy for the masses which allows capitalism to operate. Capitalism is what's responsible for the imperialism.

      Per your own linked article, they remained neutral even after the end of WW2 and sympathized more with the Non-Aligned states than either of the two Superpowers.

      Oh please, it's the height of dishonesty to pretend they were actually neutral after WW2.

      Alright, asshole. I think we’re done.

      I think we are done, you'll have to go make straw man arguments in a different thread now.
