What’s wrong with anti-imperialism?

There’s one Indian Quoran in particular who has about 15 million answer views a month and his entire spiel is sucking up to China, how wonderful and perfect it is, how amazing it. He’s also very much pro-Russia, when Russia is a classical imperialist country in almost every definition you can think of. There are many such authors, here. Many of the young commenters will say America is “bullying” Cuba or North Korea with sanctions but say nothing of China bullying neighboring countries in the South China sea…

Nothing, when done right.

A proper anti-imperialist is critical of ALL countries with imperial ambitions.

Hello, I have a question about astral projection. I started to get interested in this a little while after my mum passed in april. I thought I may be able to see her and speak with her if I managed to achieve astral projection. Since this interest, every time i sleep on my back I go into sleep paralysis. However, I cant progress into astral projection because it is very scary for me as I feel like I'm suffocating when this happens. I panic and force myself to wake up. This only ever happened about once a year before this. It sometimes lasts a long time. This has happened about 3 times per week since my mum died, as mentioned on a previous post. I no longer try to go into it anymore(due to the suffocating feeling), but it still happens. I read that sleep paralysis is the pathway to astral projection. Why has this started to happen so frequently since simply taking an interest in it? Is this connected to the afterlife? I am concerned about it as I now cannot seem to stop this happening. Could it be my mum trying to communicate? Im asking due to more knowledge around this in this group.

The problem I have is with the hypocrisy. Right here on Quora there are a ton of self-described anti-imperialists that absolutely despise America for being “imperialist” but continue to fellate Russia and China as these beacons of virtue.

Anti-imperialism is great when you call out ALL bad actors equally. America bad? Sure. But China bad, too. Russia bad. Iran bad. Be fair, be reasonable and analyze your own blind spots. Otherwise you’re not much of an anti-imperialist — you’re merely a willing propaganda mouthpiece for the other side.
