Edit: wanted to expand on this. I think PatSocs are in many ways a reflection of the NATO-anarchist phenomenon. Both are attempts to get factions of the US political spectrum into more economically left politics via embracing western chauvinism. NATO-Anarchists try to push the liberals left on economics by embracing bourgeois democracy and upholding it’s progressiveness on certain social issues while also supporting hawkish foreign policy against “authoritarians” in this hope this will open up liberals to more progressive domestic economic policy. PatSocs think emphasizing and/or exaggerating the nationalistic elements of past socialist movements and social conservatism will open up American Republicans to more populist economic policy. It’s the same strat for different demographics.
