    Uh huh.

    And if, as a random example, Britain and France took their thumbs out of their asses and declared war over the demilitarization of the Rhineland?

    Or the illegitimate annexation of Austria.

    Or just told Hitler they would declare war over the Sudentenland

    Or the liberal nations actually defended democracy and intervened against the fascists in Spain.

    Or or or

    Imperialism is a nation deliberately exerting influence on others, and it can be justified.

    Like most everything, it just depends on circumstances.

      They did intervene in Spain… to help the fascists. The US pressured Mexico to stop sending arms to Spanish anarchists, and Britain pressured France to stop sending arms to Spanish anarchists. Just liberals living up to their ideology, of course.

        Oh, look… a free-market cultist is pretending that capitalism isn’t one of the most extreme ideologies ever invented.

        Yawn.
