Its alright man, people will quickly learn you're one of the good ones.

Uncritically consuming the narrative pushed by western media is hella cringe.

"Red Sails is a website run by Roderic Day in collaboration with Nia Frome, Sobrina de Alguien, and several other comrades."

Inb4 "muh CCP paid shills!!!!"

That would be going into the realm of conspiracy theories lmao

LMAO shut the actual fuck up canuck, thank god I'm not from your shithole country

Echo chamber is when you get bullied for imperialist talking points, lack of critical thinking is lack of pro-america/pro-NATO propaganda.

hollow A+

Pathetic lmao

Great, here's your A+ from teacher! Now get the fuck out of my class son.

I wasn't referring to you in particular, I was referring to describing types of "liberals" in general. I am not implying that there is something inherently wrong with being uneducated. Everybody is uneducated in a variety of fields outside of their own expertise, such as nuclear physics, foraging, farming, etc. Similarly, most american progressives simply do not know what the terms "left" and "right" mean in a political context, therefore, they are uneducated. Rather, I was implying that these progressives are well meaning, good-hearted people who just need a bit more knowledge as to where they could direct their energy towards political change. I apologize if it came off as condescending, maybe I should have used the term "unactivated" or "new to politics".

but there are other worthy worldviews and subjects to spend time on that hardly make me uneducated

Thats good, keep reading. If you are interested in politics then I would recommend reading the works of Micheal Parenti.

Ok when the word "shitlib" is used here we're referring to smug, rude, arrogant, reddit-brained imbeciles who functionally support imperialism, right wing apologia, and casual bigotry. They also operate in bad faith from the get go.

Uneducated progressive "liberals" who are nonetheless openminded and empathetic are not the people who this term refers to.

*Thanks!

FTFY

“[Capitalists] act as if they are being chased by a bear,” wrote Zhang Lin, a Beijing political commentator, in response to these comments. “They are powerless to control the bear, so they are competing to outrun each other to escape the animal.”

But you gotta acknowledge that calling Russia's intervention an "invasion" is antithetical to supporting Donbas.
