    Is this patsoc stuff? Anarcho-capitalist? I can’t quite figure it out from their article history. Something about it is for sure off.

    • putting Washington on a pedestal
    • crafting a narrative to imply israel holds the power in the relationship and the US isn’t benefiting off its actions just because regular US people aren’t necessarily benefiting, as if there’s no class and caste divide that has been part of the US the whole time; like obviously it’s not benefiting low caste USians, but that doesn’t mean it has no benefit for plundering capitalists
    • favoring isolationism and some kind of vague notion of patriotism (to what exactly is not specified)

    It’s like they align vaguely with similar talking points of those opposing the colonizer israel, but then put it in a framing of venerating colonizer figures of the past (Washington) and venerating the US as some kind intrinsic value-having entity without getting into specifics as to why. Very bizarre.
