Libs will then this isn’t what imperialism means to most people and therefore shouldn’t be thought of because considering things in useful terms means you can’t smugly cite a dictionary definition. To the imperialism will always just mean the vague extension of power and influence by a country.
It doesn’t matter if they redefine imperialism to mean “empire” in their heads. When they attack people who say “we’re anti-imperialist” like this poster has then they are discussing our definition of imperialism, not their own. We do not mean anti-empire. We mean anti-imperialism in the socialist understanding of the word.
