    That’s nothing. I recognize the historical actions of the Soviets and Chinese as well as modern economic arrangements of the Belt and Road as Red Imperialism.

    But I still don’t admit imperialism exists elsewhere because colonialism ended in nineteen-forty-handwave …whatever it was it was a long time ago and they should have gotten over it by now.

    was a long time ago and they should have gotten over it

    I also never apply this logic to the things communists did to my innocent egg hoarding captain of the secret police great-great-great-uncle. I will never miss an opportunity to talk about how I will never forgive them for what they did. I might even be really vague about what they did. Or why. But I’ll make it sound totally unjustified. They confiscated all 500,000 acres of his small family farm. Monsters.
