'By accepting the basic premise of U.S. superiority, isolationists enable the nationalist, chauvinist sentiments which empower militarism and imperialism.'
What's driving this Trumpist opposition to proxy-war is an ideology that is incompatible with serious anti-war opposition: isolationism.Something strange is happening in the United States. As the Biden administration continues to go all in on proxy-war in Ukraine, the only politicians speaking up are… MAGA Republicans? Far-Right leaders like Margerie Taylor Greene and Josh Hawley are some of the only elected officials opposing the constant stream of weapons for war and NATO expansion.
Far Right politicians call for withdrawing from military alliances and wars that they see as costing the United States more than benefiting. In fact, by accepting the basic premise of U.S. superiority, isolationists enable the nationalist, chauvinist sentiments which empower militarism and imperialism. This creates an obstacle to fostering serious anti-imperialism and peace. This can be found in the example of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan.
