Usually the way NATOists and liberals put it is "'America Bad' is not an ideology / political philosophy", and it's like okay, it's still fucking true though. What am I supposed to do with a true statement if not believe it? And what am I supposed to do with that belief if not let it inform my broader ideology, especially when it relates to the country I live in, which also happens to be the current global hegemon?
Comparing anything to anything else is whataboutism
And watch their eyes glaze over when you start explaining why it's bad from a socialist perspective.
Listen, Jack
America bad is my ideology
they are correct it is a rule of thumb not an ideology. It just happens to be a very accurate rule of thumb
