That’s a great piece, unarguable logic and facts… which the “Liberal Interventionists” HATE.
I’ll only add that the Soft-Left, both US & U.K., as educated and reasonable as they appear to be, had their brains scrambled by Trump’s victory over The Virgin Hilary, her subsequent fake excuses and ‘Russiagate’ accusations, whilst they are incapable of self-reflection and can’t - or won’t - recognise the neoliberalism and ‘Centrist’ ideology’s role in the creation of the *O.M.B.
Lastly, while they are always cheerleaders for the “More War” militarism (even for the Iraq invasion, until it became an undeniable fact that they were lied to by the Governments and media), as long as they or theirs won’t be sent to fight and die.
Excellent post! I have often wondered in the last couple of years whether our current cultural moment has more in common with the collapsing Third Reich than we might like to admit. The cognitive dissonance between how we (especially those soft lefties) like to think of ourselves vs what we actually do, is just getting too much to bear
Really well said and explained, with good historical context.
Thanks for sharing!

I’m going to share your article if that’s cool?
By all means, please do share it. Thanks.

I can't say I'm a fan of Washington right now, vetoing ceasefires at the UN and supplying Israel with military equipment as it continues genocide.
