    NATO left is all like this. You’ll hear the same dumb shit from people residing in NATO or NATO friendly countries like Australia. They’ll use all the leftist talking points and give soapbox speeches about labor revolution and the evils of capitalism. Until you mention foreign threats. Then they run to the nearest recruitment office to become cannon fodder.

      It’s saddening to see someone claim to be “left” and agree with you on almost everything socialist…until you mention foreign countries and they start to say things that would’ve been regular statements coming out of a frothing at the mouth imperialist a century ago.

        Bread at home, bombs abroad. They agree on things that would benefit them like healthcare, education, food, shelter, clothing. But they realize an easy way to get fascists to agree to these demands domestically is imperialism. And even then, they won’t get those things.

      TBH I don’t really see any of these fake champagne warmonger leftists running to join the war, they won’t lift a finger as they are generally cowards. It seems like only right-wing larper doofuses actually joining the war and then running scared.
