I feel like both internet liberals and leftists have a tendency to reverse-Great Man Theory Ronald Reagan at the expense of any insight into the history of his policies or the conservative movement that led up to him.
#YOU CAN’T JUST BLAME EVERYTHING ON HIM WITHOUT TACITLY ABSOLVING COUNTLESS OTHER MONSTERS AND THE WHOLE FUCKING SYSTEM OF ITS GUILT.
#IT’S DEEPLY INDIVIDUALISTIC AND ARGUABLY ANTIHISTORICAL.
#Anyway this is because I saw a post that blamed him for the US backing brutal regimes in the global south under the guise of anticommunism.
#When that famously started back in the post-WWII era and has its roots in Monroe Doctrine ideology.
#FYI I fucking hate him but he’s a part of a larger picture.
#(Anyway I study American politics during the Cold War with a focus on the rise of the far right.)
