Is Imperialism a Good Thing?

[EgoRaptor]

I do truly believe imperialism is a good thing. Capitalism is a necessary forerunner to socialism, & countries must adopt Western-style capitalism before they can have social revolution & become anarchist communist. Thus I fully support the capitalist imperialism as it civilizes savages & prepares them to destroy capitalism.

The bourgeoisie... furnishes the proletariat with weapons for fighting the bourgeoisie.

Imperialism creates the conditions necessary for the creation of the Anarchist Confederacy.

[Mudhammam]

Yeah, if your American or one of its Western allies it's a great thing. For the rest of the world, not so much.

[Minimalist]

Imperialism never ends well.

Well, I think that you have a point here. Capitalism and Socialism, in my opinion, are on the same side of the political spectrum given their internationalistic goals.
Both capitalism and socialism do not differentiate between peoples, creeds, cultures, and have only materialism as their primary worldview.

However, imperialism might not always fit your specifications.
