Even the most vote-blue-no-matter-who Democrat ideology is fundamentally imperialist and genocidal. Don’t kid yourself. That’s always been the function of the US military

    The rest of the world isn’t in a state of perpetual war. The rest of the world isn’t toppling governments to install subservient leaders. The rest of the world doesn’t have 800+ military bases around the world. That’s just the US and NATO. They are the imperial core and they operate differently from the countries that are anti imperialist or being imperialized. Hope that helps
