In fact this will be my pinned tweet.

@GbombM75819 @DanMKervick I'm going to assume, that he must mean the distal prefixes, that 3rd person pronouns have:

1) - (blank) for nearest, which is defective/no longer used in English.
2) h- for nearer.
3) th- for further.
4) wh- for unknown/interogative

Who murdered Comrade Masinde?

Comrade Peter Masinde was found dead outside the warehouses where he and other workers slept at night.

We demand the truth. We demand justice. We demand accountability.

His death must not be buried in silence.

@MooseAnony34735 @geeseobserver @RazLikesRocks I mean, that just generally we are not opposing that definition out of a moral avoidance (some especially younger people probably do, if they misunderstand it).

I am not saying, that you are necessarily moralizing it either.

[Nine Ball @hustlr_01]

@MooseAnony34735 @geeseobserver @RazLikesRocks Oh, I meant that in a more general way. I could have been more clearer on that point.

There are various narrower definitions, so it helps to specify which.

[Nine Ball @hustlr_01]

@MooseAnony34735 @geeseobserver @RazLikesRocks If you are asking most marxists, then we will usually be operating under this version of "imperialism" in the pic below.

If you want to use the broader classic definition, then that is fine, but our perspective is more or less, that trying to moralize about it is just moot.

[Nine Ball @hustlr_01]

@SmokieOkie2036 @windshine__ @Beezy9595 @redaskiy @sm64blj @wokejucheism None of your replies suggest, that you or most people in your "organization" know the meaning of materialism or idealism.

You are just blathering buzzwords.

[Nine Ball @hustlr_01]

@thepromise2026 @AOC Your "principles" are vague and passively worded.

Your only concrete "principle" is "we are proud of America", which really gives the game away, because your nebulous "principles" are just a smokescreen for more liberal imperialism and capitalism.

[Nine Ball @hustlr_01]

@MooseAnony34735 @geeseobserver @RazLikesRocks This is one of the reasons, why "imperialism" is used in a narrower sense to refer to the current dominant hegemon in political contexts.

[Nine Ball @hustlr_01]

@MooseAnony34735 @geeseobserver @RazLikesRocks That doesn't follow from your definition though. This applies to any entity, that performs any kind of coercive action.

Even reclaiming lost land or property would apply to this. It would be an imperial exercise.

[Nine Ball @hustlr_01]

@MooseAnony34735 @geeseobserver @RazLikesRocks Your given definition from Merriam-Webster is *fine*, but then it does not make sense to *moralize* about it, because it is just bluntly a general political framework regarding authority for any political entity.

[Nine Ball @hustlr_01]

@MooseAnony34735 @geeseobserver @RazLikesRocks It's not my implication. It is from the same source, that you cited for a definition. This is, how that word is used in academics and political contexts.

[Nine Ball @hustlr_01]

@thierryntoh23 @MythRyu08 @Novus_Prime1 Bruh, this is the first image on your profile. Be for real.

[Nine Ball @hustlr_01]

@andybagel58 @Whimsy_Wizard @Lunnzies @wulfeart The "heretic" fleet in Halo 3 is the Sanghelli Fleet of Retribution + the Forward Unto Dawn, which was commanded by the Elites, who were now heretics to the Covenant.

Notice that you said "Chief and Arbiter" in Halo 3, because the Arbiter is a heretic to them.

[Nine Ball @hustlr_01]

@MooseAnony34735 @geeseobserver @RazLikesRocks Meanwhile this is closer to the meaning, as it is used in modern political contexts - from your same source:

[Nine Ball @hustlr_01]

@MooseAnony34735 @geeseobserver @RazLikesRocks Then nearly every political entity is effectively imperialistic by this definition, since this is pretty much a straight continuation of the roman concept of *empire*, which is the *highest form of authority*.

Even a rebel trying to stake ground is exerting imperialism.

[Nine Ball @hustlr_01]

@LoneTraveller32 @DontNukeAnyone The international angloid empire is run by paedophiles. You support pardophiles. You probably are a paedophile for that matter.

@JustAMothing What if he wore a GN Cannon as a backpack? 🤔

[Nine Ball @hustlr_01]

@KarlMarxFan17 In my experience many libertarians & classic liberals have 0 awareness of their own ideological ontology or even history.

Modern particularly western state-building came from bourgeois capital consolidation, but they are just too careless to understand this.
