American leftist Twitter is constantly at war with itself, which it then normalizes by pointing out all the famous schisms among communists and socialists. But something stands out as exceptional: there is no nationalism among the American left. Strong anti-nationalism actually./— Ye Voter (@Mont_Jiang) October 29, 2020
The real revolution is the destruction of the American ability to wage empire on the rest of the world, not the reform of empire to become a Good Empire. That cannot be understood deeply except through the nationalist identity arising from identification with the colonized.
hmmmmm
pick one
nah it can definitely be understood without an appeal to nationalism.
