I don’t really oppose them?

Comply with international law and open up and I'd probably be for lifting them.

Just like I'm for removing sanctions on Cuba.

Just like I'm for imposing sanctions on Israel.

Just like I'm for imposing sanctions on my own imperialist country that's bombing and invading the rest of the world.

And let's point out too that it's not the US alone who has sanctions on NK like we do on Cuba. The UN Security Council consistently votes against the Cuba sanctions. They don't on NK sanctions. Russia and China are part of that council too with veto power, but it's unanimois. So 🤷‍♂️

What I would be for, actually, is a better way to affect beneficial change and avoid harming civilians. Sanctions themselves disproportionately affect normal civilians through food and medical shortages, etc, while the political elite can avoid them.

We're agreed though, liberals, especially neoliberal capitalists, are imperialists. And we're feeling that imperial boomerang come back around to us finally.

Ok you are alright in this regard

I however disagree heavily with your assertion on "authoritarianism", because I am a marxist leninist.

Every anti "authoritarian" tendency of socialism (moreso sceintific socialism i.e. marxism) is reactionary and idealist in itself.
