Well without even touching any of that you gotta remember can strongly support a politician’s geopolitical moves without even having formed an opinion on how capable they are at home, that’s how I feel. I was expecting Brazil, I have some criticism of Lula loaded up now darn.
communism is internationalist. it’s about supporting the proletarians of the world not supporting some in some countries and supporting capitalists in others. this is the basic amount of solidarity to be expected from comrades
the united states arrested our former president letting the democratic socialist take power lmao. you’re naive if you think demsocs actually oppose this “hegemony of the imperial core” whatever that would look like in practice
Hondorus sounds like an usual situation. Everywhere else in Latam demsocs like Evo get opposition because they take resources away from the imperial core by nationalizing them.
the resources are taken away from the individual owners ownership wise which sucks for those individual capitalists but aren’t taken away from the world market. the commodity relationship remains intact making it not against the west
I don’t have access to their correspondence but I’m gonna assume Áñez wanted power and opposed Evos reforms, the OAS didn’t want to see reduced exports and political power entrenchment, and Exxon probably donated a fair amount of money to allow economic liberalization to take place. I hope you realize people in our own countries have their own thoughts and motivations and aren’t just automatons that do what the CIA says. the coup in my own country was done by military generals upset over having their airbases turned over to civilian use as an example
How about Pedro Castillo? Does it upset you that online leftists reacted negatively to the lawfare coup against him, despite having already marked him as a kind of centrist milquetoast?
Nobody I can recall framed his actions as based anticolonialism, besides the fact he didn’t really get to do anything, they just observed the financial, legal, and military pressures the core places on the periphery.
Again i cant stress enough how unusual the situation in your country is versus the historical trends in the region…
The idea that the coup in Bolivia didnt have a strong imperial influence behind it is definitly heterodox. Obviously people there had their own motivations, but when i ask “why was Evo couped” i mean “why was it backed by imperial powers”
Also you understand that the CIA and state department serve the needs of those “individual capitalists” that stand to lose right?
This makes me wonder your thoughts on things like Hong Kong and the color revolutions.

Which is exactly why we critically support things that work against the hegenomy of the imperial core?

So why was Evo couped?

Who said anything about you being a CIA mouthpiece? (I mean this facetiously.)
“Communism is internationalist which is why you need to stop caring about international geopolitcs and only care about Honduras!”
We’re not dumb enough to fall for this thinly veiled national chauvinism
