It's not about sympathy as much as about strategy. Changing the United States is fundamentally impossible without allies in the United States military. And there are hundreds of thousands of potential comrades in the armed forces.
I've read Settlers. The number of Hispanic people in the USA (AKA the descendants of indigenous Americans) is increasing year by year. If you write off the USA you are also writing off all of those indigenous descendants, which is racist.
Eh, just because Mestizo Latinos have indigenous blood doesn't mean they can't internalize settler mentality. Pretty much all of Latin American history since the initial conquests are a testament to that, and not all gusanos are white.
But yeah, you're right. I'm not sure how one reads Settlers and comes to the conclusion that, because the US is fundamentally an imperialist settler-colonial system, we shouldn't take advantage of its many contradictions (soldier discontent) and leave the growing number of POC and conscious whites to burn along with it.
Meh, I don't feel any sympathy toward the young babykillers.

Yep. I don’t expect there to be something like the Russian Revolution in the US but having military allies is a massive boon to any movement.
Changing the US is fundamentally impossible because of the amount of brain dead colonists that live here. obligatory read Settlers.
