Correct.
That is why they maintain American imperialism.
Such as funding a genocide in the middle east.
Exactly. They fund genocide because it's politically expedient. The opposition funds genocide because they love killing brown people
It's conceivable to convince one side that genocide is no longer politically favorable. You're never going to convince the other side to stop wanting to kill brown people. There is no third option with prospects to win.
You cannot convince the rich and powerful that it's politically unfavourable when it's economically favourable to do genocide.
They don't care about what people want. They care about what they want, and that's US imperialism.
I'm saying that it's possible to make it economically unfavorable. If, for instance, you had massive boycotts or strikes or something.
No amount of boycotts or striking are going to make the others stop wanting to murder brown people for its own sake.
That makes the choice clear.
