The whole point of the OP is that being against US imperialism doesn't mean you have to be very purposefully silent about yhe atrocities committed by the US geopolitical rivals because they are US enemies therefore good.
It's a very prevalent thing about US lefties, if you're not aware, I'm telling it to you, as a Ukrainian lefty myself. I agree, fuck Apple and Starbucks (never had one and heard from friends it's shit). Also fuck Russia for killing a bunch of my friends and fuck those US "leftists" like Chomsky, who suck Russian dicks.
One problem I see is that people feel like they have to work in absolutes or match their opinions 100% with everything within a group. How the grouping forms is not always clear, but apparently if one is associated with that grouping, they feel the need to defend everything in that grouping and attacking everything that isn't.
There is some discussion to be had in the role of the US using proxies to undermine global rivals, but that does not justify Russia invading Ukraine, nothing does. Absolutely, fuck Russia.
Thank you.
I just don't like the pushback against this meme, when all it says is "Yes, US imperailism is bad, it doesn't mean that Stalin did nothing wrong", but for some reason people push back with "US imperialism is bad FULLSTOP, shut up about everything else". Which is exactly how Nortb Korea-glorifying tankies behave. I may have lumped your comment in with those, sorry for that.
