Let’s hope the CIA doens’t show up.

    people aren’t really celebrating, and this just proves that Bolivia has every justification to be anti-US and anti-coup. As well, this;

    (picture for those who can’t see pictures, or don’t understand what’s in the picture. The leader of the coup, Jeanine Anez, accepts defeat and wishes the rightful Arce government luck)

      People are also armed in the streets, at least in the country-side. Seriously, the country was almost hurtling towards an insurgency.

      CamilateleSUR on twitter posted some vids of the celebrations. Very good sign here sure, but even if the puppet concedes, will her handler (Empire) allow it so easily? Where does the military stand?

        The military likely knows they’re outnumbered, and it’s pretty obvious that a continued effort to coup would only lead to Vietnam II: Lithium Boogaloo. If the US continues to push for a coup, at this point it’s more than clear it’ll go nowhere.

          The US does seem to be quieting down on Bolivia and moving on to Nicaragua and Venezuela, possibly Nigeria. I’m still wary for now though, especially if Joe “more competent imperialism” Biden gets in. Even if Bolivia does prevail in the end, possibility of a Vietnam II is still a fucking horrible fate, considering how many of our past comrades were killed in Vietnam I.
