I don't care what history has to say about us to high schoolers in 2060, I'm living in a country that will eventually hang me for posting this. The world needs to get it's shit together and stop this train.
If you live in the US Empire, you can be a part of the movement to end it. Especially with the Empire's recent aggression against Venezuela, now is a good time to get active! Join an org like the PSL! They're already organizing anti-war protests, and even had one on Saturday.
That's objectively bad messaging. 'End the US Empire' is so trivial to paint as purely anti-American. Not only will fail to win over more than a tiny fraction of people, but anyone part of it will be easily discredited
How would 'end the US Empire' ever be a popular idea in America? Even assuming it is a moral platform, it can only ever be a fringe idea in America
Any socialist organizing will be painted as anti american. Who gives a shit? The fascists call the neolibs radical, marxist, far left, anti american, you name it, despite the fact that they're two sides of the same shitty capitalist coin.
Your comment rhymes with telling a child not to stand up to their bully because the bully will call them names. Even a child would answer with, "but they do that already!"
