weird how certain leftists comprehend and oppose the horrific things the US government does but then are like "tax the rich" as if the additional extraction revenue would magically be distributed to regular people via social services rather become more funding for exactly what the US government has always done (horrific things).

Further to the point: if the spoils the US government's imperialist conquest and neocolonial geopolitical domination were made to bolster a benevolent welfare state and bestow upon it's citizenry "universal" (nationalist) basic income and "universal" (nationalist) healthcare, would these folks remain in opposition to the US Empires crimes against humanity and it's eternal war upon human freedom, or would they simply slip into the acquiescence we expect from run of the mill liberals? I'm guessing mostly the latter.
