      I dunno. That subs normalises extremely lib takes on foreign policy among fledgling leftists and bans people who dare to speak against US imperialism.

        The sub doesn't "normalize" US imperialism. That's already a part of the cultural hegemony. Any sub that would ban that kind of talk would seem so foreign to new leftists that they probably would just leave.

          That's the important part. You're right that imperialism is normalized within mainstream culture; we don't want to to be normalized in leftist spaces, too.

          Maybe I have not been paying attention but it seems like a more resent development. Supposedly there is one mod that has taken up a vendetta against "tankies".
