The OP of that Tweet has me a little suspicious with the way he says “America bad politics.” It’s almost always a lib or NATO leftist
In the case of empanada I think it's just true, he's right by accident a lot of the time because vulgar "america bad" is the basis of his politics rather than actual principled analysis (which would also lead you to conclude that america is bad, of course).
Except not really, because he's a chauvinist when it comes to Russia and China and Iran. He doesn't have critical support of anti-imperialist projects. If anything, he's much more of an ultraleftist than he is an anti-imperialist.
I agree, but vulgar "america bad"-ism can also lead to these kinds of perspectives because people will crash out that no one is "saving them from America" and that other countries aren't willing to utterly destroy themselves starting hopeless wars.
I think it's referring to the idea that if your politics are just "America bad" you'll be right far more often then you are wrong, but it is still a very vulgar and incomplete analysis.
nah they are a socialist
