why do people here constantly argue about who to support when the YPG and the Syrian government are working together ?

Also look up the Afrin deal.
I mean the interests of the Regime and Rojava are not inherently contradictory, Rojava ain't sepratist:
Chase Moore
Because lots of people, both pro-Assad and pro-Rojava, still think SDF is part of the opposition.
Most Western leftist have a very superficial understanding of Syria.
Grayson Johnson
It's because America is involved. America has no interest in a unified Syria. It wants another Libya in order to further destabilize the region. I support Rojava but I am extremely worried that they will make major concessions to the Americans which will end up distorting the project and doom it to failure.

They might be "working together" to fight ISIS but at the end of the day the YPG wants a chunk of Syria and Iraq. Their future will depend on negotiations after the war and what Turkey does.
Austin Walker
YPG is not fully socialist anyway, but it's better to support them than fucking Assad like the tanks do lmao

the nation state is on its way out. World Revolution was the original leftist position. 3rd worldism and tankie ideas about antiimperialism are products of the stalinist doctrine of socialism in one country.
