    I don’t care what I sound like, they’re also one of the few leaders/nations who successfully defended against American capitalist aggression attempting to destabilize their government to open up its resources/people to our owner’s merciless exploitation in their insatiable need for infinite growth/metastasis on a finite world, and remove as many potential global examples of alternative economic systems as possible, a feat many South American nations that dared to attempt a better future for their people failed to accomplish defending against.

    A small example demonstrating that our oligarchs can be rebuked, but an example nonetheless.

      Number 4 is slightly inaccurate. The Dominicans elected a social-democrat who then got overthrown by a US-backed coup a couple of months after the election. Then there was a revolt against the Junta a couple of months after that and it was only then when the marines were then sent to shoot at the Constitutionalists.

      And yet somehow I doubt you live there. Nor do the thousands of people who risk their life to escape every year.
