I’ve no time for it at all. It’s the political philosophy equivalent of America first nationalism - shortsighted and ignorant, assuming that if you just look after yourself then issues from elsewhere can’t impact you. Kind of thing I’d expect from a toddler.

Definitely that. But also, why shouldn't I root legitimate democracy around the world? What's the downside there? I believe the more legitimate democracies the less war and strife. Seems like a good thing.

Given how interconnected the world is, with bad actors working together in many countries, I think his take his bullshit deflection posted instead of the constipated mental rage he’s presuming attempting to process.

Also, maybe I would be less invested in foreign elections where leftists beat rightoids if the far right was not resurgent in my place of residence (Germany *ralf chuckles*)

Also his takes about the UK are reliably shit so maybe he should either stop having them or get a bit more invested in the countries he's having takes about.

Yep, basically had the same thought. bsky.app/profile/adsq...

We should absolutely care about other elections and foreign policy events but not to the exclusion of everything else
