    Pretty sure Fascists and ethnosupremacists are the ones who love, not hate, America. It’s been so wild seeing these libs go full “love it or leave it!” right wing CHUD without any hint of irony or selfawareness, just a lot more bullshitting about how being pro-genocide is actually “progressive.”

      Genocide - fundementally progressive

      Settler-Colonialism - fundementally progressive

      Slavery - fundementally progressive

      Segregation - fundementally progressive

      Imperialism - fundementally progressive

      Capitalism - fundementally progressive

      Dropping nuclear weapons - surprisingly also fundementally progressive

      Libs can look at these things and hand wave them away as “failures to live up to” the “progrssive” ideal. Completely delusional

        Citations Needed Episode 13: The Always Stumbling US Empire

        “Stumbling”, “sliding”, “drawn into” war––the media frequently assumes the US is bumbling its way around the world. The idea that the United States operates in “good faith” is taken for granted for most of the American press while war is always portrayed as something that happens to the US, not something it seeks out.

        On this episode, Adam and Nima explore the media’s commitment to the narrative of “United States as reluctant warrior,” whose leadership and decision-making always has the “best intentions.” We also examine the new Ken Burns and Lynn Novick PBS series on Vietnam which traffics in many of these tropes. With guest Professor Hannah Gurman.

      I read it as when America is committing it’s greatest sins, e.g. committing slavery and genocide, are examples of it failing to live up to its progressive ideals. Still a wild American exceptionalism take

    The amount of copium that has been released against the fairly basic interpretation of the art is amazing.

    Fujimoto also has the American president [Bill Clinton] sacrifice a year of the lifespan of everyone in the USA in order to let loose a mass murder machine in Japan. Do people think he is actually approving of the US?

    is how fascists and monarchists and ethnosupremacists talk about the US.

    Most people in all three categories cannot stop gushing about the US. The only anti-american reactionaries are Duginists: people who see America as either competition for status as great satan, or hate it BECAUSE IT’S NOT RACIST ENOUGH!

    🎶Yes I know my enemies🎶
    🎶They’re the teachers who taught me to fight me🎶
    🎶Compromise, conformity, assimilation, submission🎶
    🎶Ignorance, hypocrisy, brutality, the elite🎶
    All of which are American dreams (8 times)

    It’s less progressive, more experimental. They’re testing how concentrated power can become within a ruling class before it implodes. Unless a force like it puts its weight on the scales, we know monarchies will be overthrown. But a system in which the ruling class is diffuse enough that nobody is essential and they’re all individually totally disposable and replaceable is insidious.
