So just 4 days ago we had huge thread about how great she is because she criticized US imperialism and immediately after that she’s actively participating in the same imperialism. Also her position on Ukraine remains afaik unchanged, still supporting that fascist and ecocidal imperial puppet. How it is even possible to reconcile, is she two different people or what?

    I bet she would call the Belt and Road Initiative “Chinese Imperialism” if asked. This are the typical contradictions of someone who realizes that capitalism and America are bad, but hasn’t fully recognized what that means.

    She needs to read Lenin.

      She is trying to be good, but misses A LOT of stuff. Still good for her age, at least 99% of people would have turned into complete grifters if they were in her shoes.

      Also, it is really hard to see evil from within, we all at least slightly empathize with our own region even if it isn’t deserved.
