Excited to find the western chauvinists in this community.

Edit: Wow apparently the only people on chapo dot chat are whitees unaffected by and benefiting from their imperialism confidently declaring how the perpetrators are to be treated.
Y'all have some nerve

Edit 2:
ITT If you shoot a black kid in the back in downtown Baltimore I want nothing to do with you. If you perfarate an entire back family in Mogadischu or Baghdad that's ok, you did growth and spaces.

      The tweet isn't even about building a movement though, it's about leftist vets and the need to reconcile the inherent contradiction of their ideology and former status as imperialist beating sticks. Not to mention that the poster even says it's not up to us American Leftists to make that moral judgement, it's up to the victims of empire.

          I mean sure, but again that's not the point of the tweet.

          If our fellow chapos were able to rationalize the tweet like that we wouldn't even be in this thread, so we can't really call anyone else radlibs when we're pretty much doing the same thing lol

        it’s about leftist vets and the need to reconcile the inherent contradiction of their ideology and former status as imperialist beating sticks.

        Imagine thinking that this matters in the grand scheme of things.

            Actually, you don't care about the oppressed unless you use them as a prop to shame the impure and reject potential members for anti-imperialist movements
