Well darn it how did companys use the military .

I suggest reading Galeano’s “Open Veins of Latin America” for details.

Why didny you just develope your resources yourselfs.

We tried to. The US sent guys with guns, and waged economic warfare on us when we did.

Your goverment can say no we dont want you but they didnt did they

[The trigger]

So what your claiming is when your nation refused to do business with American companys we sent guys with guns.
How many did we send was the airforce involved and did we park a aircraft carrier off you coast. Its odd I never heard anything about this happing and 8m in my 60s . what nation did we take over and why did we allow it to slip away. What year was th8s do you have any links. Tell us all more about it.

Something odd that book open veins of latin america was banned in several latin American nations because it was basically full of it even in yhe authors home nation .
Sounds like he was a SOCIALIST ak communist trying to blame the United states for the failure of SOCIALIST goverments just saying .

The US certainly meddled like hell in basically every single nation in Latin America. To varying degrees of course, but it's undeniable the US significantly impacted the course of events in various Latin American nations.

It has taken on various forms. In some nations is through supporting regime change, in others it was in the name of restoring democracy (while making sure the restored government is favorable to the US). These are things all nations partake in.

supporting Authoritarian is maybe hypocritical from the American side but its necessary as there are some countries that just cannot have a democracy at this point because it quickly turns to anarchy and a big chance for theocratic regime to rise


Egypt is a good example of that

By the way the Democrats and their news media are supporting socialism and have tried to overthrow President Trump, I am not sure how much longer the USA can have a functioning democracy. It is very troubling.

Democrats are playing dirty when things arent going their way
it wasnt like that in the past both parties had respect for each other today its a mess

Let's not have any of this crying crocodile tears over the demise of the notion of ''representative democracy'' from you, @Hindsite. Almost everybody loves a Authoritarian regime as long as it's delivering on what they want It to deliver on, and you'd rather have a Pro-Israel Police State America over a Libertarian America (neutral about Israel and other foreign countries problems) any day of the week.

Yes zionist I agree bot partys did get along better at one time.
And this was when conservative or even more conservative than they are now and liberals were liberal not socialist

[skinster]

I'm not an idiot. Why are you so mean?

But you're regularly living up to the American stereotype, habibi. For example:

In some nations is through supporting regime change, in others it was in the name of restoring democracy (while making sure the restored government is favorable to the US). These are things all nations partake in.

"restoring democracy" -

"all nations partake in" -

I guess you missed what was in parenthesis.

Yes, all nations partake in meddling with each other.

It was the Democrats and their left-wing political news media that were crying crocodile tears when Donald Trump whipped their behinds in the last Presidential election. I am still smiling.
Praise the Lord.

Kind of irrelevant to what I was saying, but I would say the tears were a very real manifestation of a psychotic break from reality, in which they think things are what they are because they will them to be a certain way, and when they were confronted with reality they have stubbornly denied it (''not my President'', etc...) to this very day. They cannot concede any legitimacy to Trump or his ''deplorables'' or it would mean the eventual failure of their ideology, a failure as complete as that of other ideologies in the recent past.

However since I personally am almost a Anarchist at heart, and hold liberty rather dear, to my mind both sides of your political mythology; ''Liberals'' and ''Conservatives'', are in fact all quite Liberal and Statist in a very modernistic and authoritarian way. Two sides of the same coin.

Cuba libre!!

Both USA parties have the same ideology: Greed is good. Help the 1% and you too can be rich.

If you really love liberty, than you must reject civilization(s) since they are all behaviorist straight-jackets that eventually collapse into violence and extinction.

What I liked about Cuban society is how natural it is, and how little social stratification or superstition there is there. Both social inequality and superstition are big parts of almost all civilizations.

Essentially, yes, I'm well aware of that, that's what the Rich have the Modern State for; to privatize the profits and socialize the costs of their crony public/private Capitalism.

If you really love liberty, than you must reject civilization(s) since they are all behaviorist straight-jackets that eventually collapse into violence and extinction.

If you've possibly been reading some of my more recent reflections, you know then that I absolutely reject the ''Faustian Civilization'' as Oswald Spengler called the Western and Frankish High Culture that arose after 1000 AD and now dominates the world. I do love liberty.

Well, I count Voodun in that ''superstition'' category, I lived in the Caribbean for a while in my youth.

Of course they are.

What a crock

[BigSteve]

Capitalism is an abject failure.

No, it's an abject failure when it's placed in the hands of corrupt and inept governments.

It's workin' out pretty well for us...
