      You must be new to dealing with MLs. Nothing “uncalled for” for calling out MLs that keep harping about social democratic countries having neocolonies, when literally these countries have none and some of these countries even used to be colonies.

        imperialism doesn’t exist! its a figment of “ML” imagination.

        please get a grip on reality, nevermind we are on an entire thread about it. (and leave my fucking country for once)

            ahahahahahahha yeah, because they are grossed out by my country. their presence here is limited to extractivism and destroying our natural reserves.

            one step closer to the “white genocide” fascists. keep up and you will get there i’m sure.

              And I am sure that ML presence in former Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, Poland Slovenia, India, Afghanistan, Philippines, Sri Lanka and Ethiopia are not “extractive” for you.

              “Of course not, they’re my crowd! It’s only bad if we’re not the ones doing it!”

                  And who were in Afghanistan before the US came?

                  Ask Filipinos and Indians what they think of CPP-NPA and Naxalite respectively.

                  You should ask yourself if your head is out of the sand to even actually get news from post-colonial people themselves disrupted by ML activities.

                    maybe it was socialism’s fault for the us destabilization of the region.

        Are you familiar with the process of unequal exchange? It doesn’t require to have or to have had colonies and it doesn’t preclude former colonies from engaging in it. It doesn’t even require a particular country gov’t policy.

          I am aware, but the countries i mentioned do not engage in neocolonialism/neoimperialism if that is what you are implying.
