    Tbh this is on me. I should have known that a Rage Against the War Machine guy will never have a normal and good faith take.

    I don’t keep up with American left political developments so it never occurred to me that people use multipolarity was a springboard for Putin worshipping.

      The putin worshipping stuff is less of a development on the left imo, but something you see growing in the rightwing camp. There’s a PSL article about the similarities between the “America First” chauvinism prior to WW1 and the similarities between the same right wing opposition to NATO currently.
