        They also tend to dislike service workers and teachers. Their perception of the working class masses are bearded white guys in hard hats and that's it.

        Also it seems like these Midwestern Marx people are mostly college professors. When professors call something woke it's usually because they tried sexually harassing a student.

        You'd think they'd love imperialism, then

          It's like Césaire said, the real sin of fascists was to apply colonialism to white people. Much of the western 'left' is still only concerned with that dynamic. If the US practiced it's imperialism only on the global south, you wouldn't hear a peep. As evidenced by the existence of those who tell you to vote Biden because although he's doing a genocide, he isn't quite so ghoulish against the good ol' USians as Trump would be (he is, but they aren't concerned with facts).
