    Would you explain what the contradiction is between a desire for peace and an opposition to imperialism?

    If “containment of x” means “making it harder for x to invade” then yes, I am advocating for that so long as the ends justify the means, and yes, that is peaceful coexistence. If you have a personal problem with that, then I don’t care. But it’s a perfectly coherent philosophy.

      The contradiction is saying that allowing a country to defend/enforce its borders is appeasement. The implications is that to do so is aggression.
