Yeah because the focus was on being right as opposed to actually being relevant.
The largest & most successful movement within the anti-war movement was the ANSWER Coalition. They were also the ones most willing to call out the imperialist lies about WMDs. "Being right" and "being relevant" aren't contradictory, they're complimentary.
I am ignorant.
I know. There is countless resources on the situation in Xinjiang you need to familiarize yourself with. Several have already been linked in this thread. The "Uighur concentration camp" myth is as absurd as the "Iraqi WMD" myth, and people need to understand that.

Imagining yourself not ignorant of a situation several thousand miles from you because you've spent 2 hours reading articles and applying an (often useful) heuristic of "US bad" is the geopolitical equivalent of antivaxxer mindset.
Yes. Every effort to prevent the war failed. Still seems like we should move in the direction of the movement's most successful aspects. No one remembers Kerry's limp-dicked criticism of the war. People do remember the WMD lie.

And we've made it to the projection step of anti-intellectualism.
I haven't read any articles actually. Why would I read articles on this when I cant verify their content or materially engage with the subject matter.
Unless I wanted to take the opportunity to preen of course.
There were no successful aspects of the antiwar movement. Not if we're measuring the movement by is (ostensible) intended purpose. ANSWER may have been successful in making you feel popular or smart. But that's not what I care about.

This incidentally, is the same mentality that is going to get us all killed via climate change.
What mentality is causing climate change lol
A few banks own the military & the oil industry. It's not a matter of "mentality."
Greenhouse gas emissions are causing climate change actually. Not banks or oil.
That's you. That's what you sound like.
No. I'm describing the actual social power which prevents change from happening. It's not a "mentality."
Reification intensifies
Using marxist terms while denying the reality of the state under finance capital lol
goo goo gah gah
Other reification pal.
Even worse. Go learn about history & development of both finance capital & the US state.
You've definitely refuted my original premise that you're just in this for the intellectual preening.
