    Something I don’t understand how people can correctly identify NATO propaganda dismissing war crimes and western imperialism… and then immediately turn around and uncritically consume Russian & Chinese propaganda dismissing war crimes and imperialism. Do these people have any actual moral positions or are they just contrarians?

      Can they, though? Western Imperialism is when West does something, and the more West does, the Imperialism-er it is. They get positives for the same reason that answering all Cs on a multiple choice test won’t net you a 0. “You’re correct, but only because your answer never changes.”
