this site made the world make sense. there's so much doublespeak that i hadn't wrapped my head around:

the West is historically extremely awful & the West is amazing and civilised
Western democracy is broken af & Western democracy is the only democracy
racism is minimal and actively combated against & racism is endemic
non-socialist anti-imperialist states actively free people & non-socialist anti-imperialist states actively oppress/colonise people

there are so many more examples, but being exposed to this site showed me there was a way out of the imperialist core. this site to me is a blessing heart-sickle
