That means fuck ECOWAS as a tool of the oppressors also. Critical support for every coup in Africa, and for the rights of Africans to demand the French and US militaries leave their country.

Colonialism bad, but this post sets off too many red flags. Critical support to all coups? Critical support too often means silencing of valid criticisms. I've only ever seen people using that term unironically if they believe things like democratic centralism are a good idea. Some coups make things better, some make thingd worse. Some could even allow reactionaries to gain power or result in neocolonialists gaining more control.
Also, that Radical Markets book is fishy. Posner seems like a sleazy neoliberal and while Weyl has a point with quadratic voting, I don't want that applied to the government. I think that we should redistribute excess capital held by private individuals to the people evenly so that no single individuals can wield power without having it given willingly.
Edit: grammar
Edit 2: God I'm tired.
