Am I the only one who ISNT surprised Vaush has the right opinions on Palestine? Most of the radlib faux-anarchists with bad geopolitics I've met in my life have at least been right on Palestine.
Cuba and Palestine seem to be the bare minimum for a NATO leftist. Sometimes on a rare occasion they'll even throw in Bolivia too. They'll usually be sure to tell you that Cuba could be more Democratic and that Hamas is bad.
I definitely know at least two that I've met who are like "Cuba is bad because its a state and all states are bad" but STILL have the correct opinion on Palestine. Re: Hamas I can think of one who delusionally believes the Free Syrian Army is a "organic people's movement" so it would be REALLY weird for her to thereafter go "I condemn Hamas" lmao.
I mean you're preaching to the choir here lol. This person would argue it doesn't matter and that principles matter more ect ect. She is wrong and dumb.
I consider myself neutral on "AES" states, which seems like support in comparison to the frothing racist hatred and compulsive lying that passes for political consciousness in the west. it's that sort of thing that I think no serious anarchist has any business engaging in, but I'll admit it's way more common than it ought to be. I follow plenty of anti-imperialist anarchists on Tumblr tho.
They're supportive of many AES states but its not because they are AES. Simplest way to explain it is they habitually support underdogs. The USSR was and China is, too big and scary. But Vietnam, Palestine, Rojava, Cuba, Chile, Bolivia, Yemen, Chiapas, maybe - if you're lucky - Venezuela, full send support.
DPRK is the standout exception for them. Usually they just need a history lesson.
I suppose I didn't even give him enough credit to consider him a radlib, I thought he literally was just a Democrat who cynically decided to call himself an anarchist because that's the political label with the most online radicalizable teenagers.

sure but what else are they supposed to do 90 miles from the great satan itself? Critical support for states opposing

Crackers think this because they've never had to choose between principles and life and they never will.

I remember him getting banned from Twitch(?) because he said Israel should get nuked or something. I guess he isn't a complete grifting opportunist.
Still a pedo though.
Consider how much leeway he gives Nazi myths about Jews and there is another answer. Not everyone is antizionist for antimperial reasons

Yeah I mean he's all about Ukraine is allowed to defend itself with NAto help, I'm surprised he's not saying the exact same about Israel
It's pretty funny observing some lone sparks in the liberal hivemind:
good. it forces them to realize their ideology is internally contradictory even if they haven't yet figured out why that is.
