      The SDF’s occupation of Syrian oil and wheat are, in my view, the most relevant factor to the destruction of Syria today. By depriving Bashar of Syria’s resources, they paved the way for the conditions which brought about the events of Dec 2024, such as the large scale bribery of the Syrian Arab Army.

      Partner or direct vassel, they acted entirely to the benifet of empire. Their “libertarian socialist” project is a joke. Now they’re going to be left to dry by the empire against the Daesh terrorists that the west used as an excuse to support them.

          Anti-imperialism is based on action, and all the SDF has done is occupy a Global South country and allow the US to rape it of its resources in exchange for weapons.

          They can proclaim their “Democratic Confederarlism” is actually a socialist, anti-imperialist ideology, but if they do nothing to control their key resources (oil and gas), instead allowing it to be used at the leisure of the US, then I don’t frankly believe in their stated commitments.
