From War Nerd’s article:
The US is the most powerful on the planet, and power is evil. So anything at all that is anti-American is good because it’s fighting Power; anything that distracts from that is evil; and anything that America professes to care about is even eviler, because of America’s monstrous hypocrisy. “It makes you dumb just writing that down, but it’s Assange’s worldview and it’s pretty much the dominant Left’s as well.”
This totally explains why so many Lefties have gone hopelessly Putinoid.

I should mention that absolutism (cited by War Nerd as pertaining to the British) is also not a bad thing, although I have had to, out of peril for my life, oppose a patriarchal absolutism that made the worldsmall and captured me in a very tiny cage. If you want beautiful aesthetics of life and death, you need absolutism: eg. DH Lawrence and Lawrence of Arabia.

I stopped reading after the words “crisis in Ukraine.” Stupid, illiterate piece of fluff is that author.
