I guess in my head I've been thinking about it like the antithesis of, "Revolutionary Action requires Revolutionary Theory." "Imperialist Action requires Imperialist Theory." I can see the importance of any ideology that supports the status quo, whether it be an accurate reflection of reality or not, but I would think it be more beneficial to capital to have its higher-ups understand and hold an imperialist theory that's more reflective of reality. But yeah, I totally get what you mean.
