      for my part? not endorsing or attempting to support any bullshit empires.

      I know you're excited to try a new flavor of imperialism, but I'm really really not.

          Long story short, Supporting social democracy (which 99% of american leftists did) over neoliberalism and right wing is same logic really as supporting China over the US, and its even more clear in the latter case cause globaly the differences between the 2 will impact billions differently. And people who just chose to do one and not the other are hypocrits cause materialy there is no logical destinction

          Please reword this bit. I think I agree with you but am having a hard time parsing this. Especially this part

          Supporting social democracy (which 99% of american leftists did) over neoliberalism and right wing is same logic really as supporting China over the US,

          edit : Okay, I think I got it now. Sorry.

        You said we need to "just" not have global powers. Great! No one thought of that. Let me wave my wand.
