The absolute minimum you could do is attempt to understand what Imperialism actually is. Imperialism isn’t “invasion,” it’s a form of international extraction similar to nation scale bourgeois/proletarian relations. The fact that you’re trying to redefine Imperialism as “invasion” to make someone who linked a good source outlining what Imperialism actually is in order to make the person you replied to seem hypocritical is the peak of dishonesty.
Yes, Marxists use the latter definition listed, not the bolded, because it’s a process that is trackable and explainable within itself. Adding “invasion” to the mix only makes sense if it is as a consequence of the latter, otherwise you can just call it invasion.
