Straight forward question. Been trying to gauge the man's politics and I think he leans more toward being an anti-colonial nationalist rather than an outright socialist. Still based and deserving of critical support, but maybe not the next Thomas Sankara; not that he needs to be, but it'd be cooler if he was.

It was a simple question, dude. I'm not condemning him. I'm not condemning his actions. No part of my post implied I was.

I don't think even lesser evilism (commonly used in the context of bourgeois elections) applies here.
