There's a difference between not liking the functions of an imperfect state, and imposing/projecting your own idealism to how it should function. A totally valid anti-imperialist take is we should not interfere at all, "supportingly" or not.
I just think that while a country is under attack by the west its important to not discard the situation as an "all states are bad" or "both governments are bad" type thing, because for example screaming that while the US invades Iraq and murders hundreds of thousands of people is obviously only helping the interests of the US by legitimizing the very idea that westerners supporting or not or deeming a country good or bad is something that holds some sort of actual importance in determining which states get to exist or not.
