This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

Well, that is what fascism ultimately is: imperialism turned inward.
They never had a problem with the death and destruction so long as it was foreigners dying and foreign lands being destroyed. Now it's their coworkers and their neighborhoods and suddenly there's an urgent, pressing concern to act. And even then they can't find the courage to do anything more than walk around shouting dumb slogans for a few hours until the KKKops gas them.
I've always thought the most immoral people are the ones who ignore suffering rather than inflict it. Liberals just reinforce this belief with their every deed and action.

Very insightful read, thank you!
I think thats true for a lot of Western liberals generally. But a lot of liberals still do care about the wellbeing about people in other countries. They just have no actual comprehension about imperialism as a system and how they benefit from it as citizens of empire. Not saying their ignorance is excusable, but it's what allows their compassion to be weaponized at whatever foreign boogeyman is next in empire's scope. ("The Ukraine War is Russia's fault," "Uyghurs," "Trump kidnapping Maduro is wrong but Maduro is still a meanie poo-poo head")
