While this is true, BadEmpanada isn’t the person to take this from. His whole shtick is defending authoritarian regimes, calling for systemic murder of all who he deems “colonizers” (while he himself would be considered one by his rules).
But this is not true. The US has pursued a relentless drive toward worldwide free trade since WWII, which accelerated after 1980. The US maintains a low- to no-tariff relationship with most countries this guy refers to as “third world nations.” The US has done plenty bad things to some of those countries over the past century, but tariffs aren’t one of them.
The US has routinely abused their position in the global market to disenfranchise and abuse nations that get on their bad side, wtf are you talking about
It’s not even true, people have known about and hated the imperialism shit the entire time, it just wasn’t the main focus of mainstream news. It’s just another dumbass strawman argument trying to further fracture the left.
Well the guy in the tweet himself is making terrible false arguments for no other purpose than to divide the left, so it’s pretty fucking easy to believe that he would defend authoritarians.
I like how you confidently said that his arguments are false without providing any evidence. And now have moved on to ad-homineming me as well.
Do not feel pressured to address the actual argument. Instead I recommend insulting my entire instance next. Try making a correlation to a threaded armored vehicle that is certain to win over the crowd.

Economic world war: US has sanctions on 1/3rd of all countries, 60% of poor nations

I’m talking about tariffs
I know you want to pretend the argument is not about economic blackmail by inserting ridiculous semantics.

BadEmpanada does not defend Authoritarian regimes. He calls out Russia, China and America alike. Your argument is a complete strawman.

Your lack of knowledge (and likely willful ignorance) about US imperialism does not invalidate his argument.
If anything you proved his point.
I am well aware of us imperialism. I was referring to the idea that nobody else knows about it either which is patently false.
I’m sorry you’re just buying into bullshit arguments because it makes you feel smart.
