        what many people dont understand is that foreign policy isn’t about morals, it’s about power. capitalism too isn’t about capital, its about power. that’s why the capitalist class’ interests often aligns with interests of fascists. when money stops securing power, the capitalists will try to maintain it by any means necessary

        Real politik. Israel provides more assistance against USAs enemies than Palestine and it’s allies. Politics seldom agrees with morality.

        Based on South Vietnam, Korea, Francoist Spain, and every South American dictator willing to kill commies for trying to end slavery in their countries?

        Tradition.

        But, hey, at least we got S Korea kinda right. Eventually. After couping them too.
