    Who are the non-westerners and why are we against westerners?

    What does this title have to do with the image?

    If 40 countries in Asia, Africa, even S.America would form a treaty against NATO, would that be automatically something to support?

    Shouldn’t we be a bit more critical against false binaries and polarization?

    Comrade Manning Marable said on the last US elections “the choice is between a neoliberal nightmare and a neofascist disaster”. It is such binaries we are becoming used worldwide in the last 2-3 decades, trying to choose what will cause the least amount of damage, the least of all evils, and can’t see a ray of light in the dark era capitalism has sentenced humanity and the planet.

    Anti-Trump, anti NATO, anti-EU, anti-coal, anti-oil, anti-electricity (why not?), anti global-warming, all those fronts that are all so manageable within capitalism, without much else changing, even if the fronts were victorious and won their battle. The warriors of those fronts at the end, tired and in ecstasy due to their victories, go home back to good all capitalism as usual.

    The thugs that took over and sucked Russia dry after 91 were cornered, isolated, and forced into a situation that the west forced them to. Still with enormous personal gains unlike the millions of Russians and Ukranians wasting their lives and their land, so BP can sell oil and gas out of Azerbaijan for a multiple of the profit predicted before war. And the US military machine can sell protectionism to puppets of their game such as the insignificant and dismantled capital of social-democracy. The Swedes are handing over communists to the Turkish butchers to execute or burry in a dirty prison. This is what is left of “socialist Sweden”. The glass-front of European anti-communism of post-ww2 Europe.

      Unless they are literally led by the resurrected corpse of Adolf Hitler, the answer to that question will always be yes. That is the entire point to “Multipolarity”.

      You are on the goooooooooood zaa zaa. What in the goddamn does this even mean, I feel like someone hit me in the head while trying to read that sentence.

      Comrade Manning Marable said on the last US elections

      Manning died 12 years ago… Are you a juche necromancer??? What “last elections”??? Also what “Comrade”??? Manning was a DSA stooge that was on the slightly more radical end, but was a social democrat at best. He was also anti-Afrocentrism and called it “Petite-bourgeoisie”, he also was a professor for basically all the Ivy Leagues. He was a “model minority” stooge propped up to lead people away from ML movements.

      Its false polarization to be anti-NATO??? copium panda lenin facepalm

      Yup. When I say ‘death to Amerika’, I fucking mean it; and a blow against NATO is a good goddamn start

      It’s like the ramblings of a nihilist, aware of the world around them and the horrors being perpetrated but without any kind of framework to attempt to understand and analyse it and decide upon an appropriate response.
