One of many questions dividing the Western left is whether there is one or multiple empires in the world today, which is stupid because we are not in a material position where the answer to this question matters.
If there is one empire, it is the United States of America, and our job is to dismantle it at all costs.
If there are multiple empires, the one I’ve lived in my entire life, and therefore have some small understanding of and ability to influence, is the United States of America, and therefore my job is to dismantle it at all costs and trust in my comrades in the other empires to deal appropriately with theirs.
It really is as simple as that.
Or to put the latter case another way:
He said this at a time when there unquestionably were multiple empires/aspiring empires in the world and his country was literally at war with like three of them, BTW.

2. no one here is supporting anti-Russia or anti-China propaganda. actually if you didn’t pick and choose fragments from what people say you’d see that what I was saying was that our priority is criticizing NATO and the US for overthrowing Ukraine and using it as a puppet to break into Moscow. that is, before criticizing Putin and the new Russian empire (which America also created)

1. you’re taking a quote out of context from a draft he didn’t publish (wonder why. guess you’re just taking everything he wrote as truth, even when he didn’t mean to publish it and even then you’re dismembering it for convenience), in that test he also encourages us to criticize the international bourgeoisie.
what I’m saying, and what he was saying when you take a look at the full text is that you cannot criticize the opposing side when your own bourgeoisie have a stake
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
