    You’re right but you should probably vote for the establishment Dems if not for the sake of yourselves then for the sake of the rest of the western world, as it depends on you, sadly.

      The western world is on a downfall because imperialism is moribund. The democrats cannot save imperialism, and therefore cannot save the west.

        The western world is on a downfall because it depends on the United States.

          Both of what we said is true. The US is the imperial hegemon, and secondary imperialist powers like European countries depend on the US Empire for the hard power to continue to carry out imperialism.

        Western liberal democracies are the most free and fair societies that have existed since the invention of agriculture. Just because yours sucks the tit of capitalism to the point that it has poisoned you doesn’t mean the rest of it deserves to go.

          Sorry, I forgot that western liberals don’t consider non-westerners human, and would happily accept permeant oppression and genocide of the rest of the world so long as they get to have their treats
