Ah yes, the well-known bootlickers of US imperialism, the [checks notes]
... anarchists?
Critical thinking is western imperialism.
Regardless of if it is, it isnt used there.
"No u"
I mean you're not wrong either, but accepting the premise that critical thinking is anathema to tankies is pretty funny.
Marxism is based on scientific method, if you need to figure out if it's actually an anathema to them.
MLs are no more scientific in their approach than the fucking Nazis were. Saying "IT'S OBJECTIVE REALITY" loudly and repeatedly might make for good propaganda to the braindead, but it's not much of an actual argument. And, for the record, the ML disdain for even basic precepts of Marxism does not make them particularly appropriate heirs to Marxist thought.
I mean, if they're posting about how shit countries are that actually prioritize the well-being of their citizens over corporate profit, yeah, I would say they're doing propaganda for the Western imperial core.
Yes they prioritize the well being of their citizens over corporate profit in favor of... creating an ethnostate.
Do you want to live in an ethnostate? Would it make you feel better if all the minorities were gone?
Edit: just admit you're racist you fucking coward
Uh, would you like to remind me about the level of corporate profits experienced by firms in the PRC?
My bad I should’ve put “Anarchists”
