Yeah, I agree with all that. All I’m saying is that Ukraine is a perfect illustration how selectively libs apply their values. It’s an openly fascist state, they don’t try to hide it, and they don’t even see the need to do it. Yet, western libs conveniently look the other way because they don’t care one bit whether they stand with literal fascists, they see Russia as a threat to their ambitions, and Ukraine is just a tool to be used and discarded.
I think the focus has to be on educating people who are becoming disillusioned and falling out of liberal mainstream. As the material conditions in the west continue to decline, people are losing faith in the system, and they become open to new ideas. Unfortunately, as things stand, the right is doing a far better job recruiting than the left. For me, that’s the most worrying trend right now.
