In an American context he would have been dialectical in allowing the labor movement to rise in the same way that it did in the rest of Western Europe, but he was still a hardcore imperialist.

This pretty much. I think I first learned about american imperialism when I was learning about him.

also didn't he help get a lot of nature reserves/parks created? I mean iirc it was only because he liked hunting

It was literally just an American socdem party and Teddy was a massive imperialist piece of shit. As the first reply would have said it would have been dialectically advantageous (what they would have done eventually was done during the New Deal era and accelerating even more from the time after the end of ww2 until the election of Ronald Reagan so that's s moot point) but any American leftist who sings their praises is either naive, stupid, or a massive opportunist

He was an early conservationist, it was his thing. He actually discovered a river in Brazil in the early 1900s.

An absolutely bloodthirsty killer and Teddy attacked unions and socialists the whole time he was enforcing anti-trust law.

He liked killing. Every time he went to Africa he built a mountain of large animal corpses.

SOCDEM MAN

Just like Christopher Columbus did the "
"new world"
