Imperial rule

Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15... and you've forgotten that two things can be bad again. Drag said genocide in West Bank is bad, so you assumed drag doesn't oppose genocide in Gaza and must support Israel. It's like clockwork.
Since I know you're gonna be a pedantic little weasel about this otherwise, here's my list of things that I consider 'bad', to minimize and compartmentalize my views into your narrow little field of cope: any and all nations that profited, from the colonial age to modernity, off of the trade of African slaves, or off the extraction of resources from a motherland they have already spent 400+ years fundamentally violating. America, Europe, Spain, Portugal, France, every single fuckin' one of the Nordics, all of them.
Beyond that, I consider all settler-colonies said white settlers have spawned since the colonial era 'bad'-- which is to say, Israel too. I think you'll find that's a great deal many more than just two-- they're just not the people you want me to be sharpening a spear for.
And westerners-- American, european, doesn't matter which-- have not given me reason to extend the benefit of the doubt in over a year that they aren't zionist settlers or waterbearers for such. After all, most westerners are settlers themselves; and birds of a shit feather often flock together.
Fact of the matter is, our definitions of "imperialism" are two different definitions. You crutch yourself on the ignorant neoliberal definition, that "anti-imperialism" is just "against ALL empires"-- a naive, idealist stance. MY definition of "anti-imperialism" stands against the settlerdom I have been forced to live under the thumb of, all my life.
You are manifestly unserious.
