      I don’t understand liberal logic. When the Soviets invaded Poland alongside the Nazis, it was done out of desperation because the west rejected the Soviets’ requests of alliance prior to the war. Sure, one can denounce the entire USSR because they worked with the Nazis.

      But those same people who denounce it will move heaven and earth to excuse countries, armies, militias, volunteers, etc. who fought alongside Nazis, or are Nazis themselves - original or neo - out of ideological agreement.

      Grinding your teeth and pragmatically working with people who want to commit genocide against you = forever evil, no nuance

      Happily sieg heiling, committing and supporting perpetrators of massacres that even Nazis tug their collars to, and having so many Nazi symbols in your movement that your own supporters have to remove footage of and apologize for: based, psychological warfare, simply nationalism

          Take an ideal, like “democracy” for example.

          Bastardize it into pure simulacrum. (i.e., Ukraine getting couped and banning most political parties etc. is democracy)

          for example: rules based international order means doing whatever America wants
