lol yea. I’m an American and fully support other nations boycotting our goods but I’m noticing an overlap with these boycotts and nationalist-imperialist sentiments.
The U.S. huh? That’s who you are going to go with during a discussion of European Imperialism and world power? The Euro’s were out fucking up the world before the United States existed and a full half of the world is still desperately fucked up from literal centuries of horrifically brutal European Imperialism.
If you need lessons on anti-imperialism you don’t need the United States, just take a gander at the Europeans own histories.
? I think you misunderstood me. I know, the british and french have caused way more damage than the US has caused here. By the US’s faults specifically, i was talking about it caving into fascism (arguably has been rotting for a long time, just finally shown face) and europeans getting away from it. And since the US is a global power, they overrelied on it. Their solution? Just be their another global power, surely nothing bad will happen.
“Become a world power”
You know, we’ve had that experience before, “everywhere else” would pretty much prefer that didn’t happen again, thank you very much.

Weirdly enough, from what I’ve seen, European nationalists tend to be very much against the EU.
you’re missing Euronationalism as category.
THIS; I feel deranged, not hearing anyone else say they’ve noticed it.
Seriously. Why do people genuinely think this is a good idea? Colonialism and imperialism is bad.
People should have learned after the US’s faults, and overreliance of it due to being a world power; but people just want to do it again???
How does this have anything to do with colonialism?
Have you… studied history?
Is being a super power inherently inclusive with having colonies? I have never heard of that definition before.
