the anti-interventionist strain of libertarianism?
i don’t want to claim any kind of redemption arc, because I do not know the inside of their mind, and their correct words alone don’t mean anything, but usually if it were merely anti-interventionist libertarianism, they would be doing the Rand Paul thing of complaining about the loss of Amerikkkan “blood and treasure” in the “middle eastern quagmire” rather than lamenting the loss of civilian life to imperialism.
Also I think this post is partially directed at the Ukraine War. The right has been trying to brand themselves as anti-interventionists for years, and they’re on hard anti-interventionist footing anyways right now wrt to Ukraine. Bring up China and Mexico and that anti-interventionism drops away.
It’s also the national bourgeoisie opposing wars waged on behalf of the haute bourgeoisie I guess.
Is this guy on some kind of arc or is this just the anti-interventionist strain of libertarianism?

tbh probably just incoherent American politics.
