    *imperialism

    Most rebellions against western attacks seem not to be for socialism or against capitalism.

    But, the imperialism is due to capitalism and seems like a natural extension, so in a way, yes too

      I’m saying this isn’t a “western” thing. Take the Hong Kong rebellion, for example. Unless you actually believe China is socialist…

        You fell for it again, I’m afraid. Previously:

        The UK’s 99 year lease to subjugate the people of Hong Kong ended, a lease which had been forced upon Imperial China at gunpoint during the century of humiliation. Hong Kong reintegration after the lease expired was a foregone conclusion. The last minute, US-backed attempt at color revolution failed. It was the so-called “revolutionaries” who brought the brutality, by the way.

          No they aren’t correct, and they didn’t respond with facts, just vague posturing. The Marxists responded with facts and sources.

          They don’t take too kindly to facts there.

          Hey quick question, who is winning the war in Ukraine?

            This retort unfortunately never works, because they’ve only ever heard lies about Russia’s motivations and desired outcomes—falsehoods about what Russia would consider to be “winning.”
