Because they are the good guys! The government and president and CIA and military and media and corpos said that! So what else can do a person from nominally anarchist community than just believe them and stand at the same side as, check notes… Al Qaeda, Netanyahu and Erdogan, true beacons of freedom.
Amalgamating Al-Qaeda, IDF, TSK into a coherent side is wild. HTS and SNA may have occupied populated Syria, but given the IDF’s air strikes and the continued pressure of TSK directly and through SNA indirectly against SDF, this war seems far from over.
The fall of Assad does not endorse HTS. It simply is.
My point is, Syria is not played by various US actors alone, there are at least five countries involved with very different goals and ways of doing things.
Why do you believe the US Empire does what it does?

It must be very easy to avoid grappling with real problems you benefit from if they paint Leftist thinking as “US bad.”
There are no beacons of freedom in Syria.

Sure, and US interests won out. Hooray for the US Empire continuing to get exactly what it wants.
Well, people like Assad are not exactly a good rallying cry for an opposition.
You’re so right, turning Syria into something like Libya with open slave markets is far better for the people living there.
