Doesn't sound very "anarchist" of them to support a centralized, undemocratic military organization in which member countries don't all have the same influence.
They view it as the "lesser of two hierarchies", at least that's how the pro-NATO anarchists I know put it. All states are evil but Western states are at least less domestically repressive and since there's no hope of an anarchist revolution anywhere in the near future supporting them as the lesser evil against regressive oligarchies like Russia and Red Fash genocidal states like China is the pragmatic thing to do.
Again, that's their stated logic not mine.
I wish they would just be honest and post the trans colored swastika flags they 100% have saved on their hard drives.
Lol, they 100% don't. I find these chuckle fucks inconsistent world view as repugnant as the next ML but they don't conceptualize any of this as Nazism. Actually understanding the dark history of NATO requires you be a diligent geopolitics nerd, and these dorks don't have the patience, energy or will for that. So they just vibe that they enjoy living under bourgeois liberalism and defend who they believe to be defending it. It's not that their closet fash, they're just cowardly Libs.
So you're saying that they just haven't been scratched yet?
I mean look I obviously don't know these people but from what you're describing they sound like NAFO dogs but trans. To me, that's the same as saying they're crypto-fascists but trans.
Regardless they don't have secret trans swastikas on their hard drive. They maybe fash deep down but they're not self aware of the fact.
