CAPS LOCK BROKEN posted:Generally all the evidence of underhanded bullshit starts to trickle out a few years after this, at which time liberals will have washed their hands and moved on to the Peru campaign etc. by the very nature of intelligence agency fuckery and behind the scenes power grabs, no one will have 100% objective and sourced evidence that this is exactly what it looks like - a rightwing coup supported by the United States. and because nothing of the sort will come out for years, reflexively (and correctly) making the cynical assumption about what's going on in Bolivia will look like a conspiracy theory or Tankie Bullshit to them but hey, the important thing is, when it really counted, the liberal will always be there to be the person who Appears Serious and take the nuanced position of defending the interests of global capitalism

i also think the extreme breakneck pace of a huge wall of propaganda immediately followed by the insane fascists breaking out the giant bibles and burning indigenous flags has made at least some liberals and younger people question some of their assumptions about imperialism / strengthen their ability to identify imperialism, from what i've seen

Phi230 posted:What have you seen and where because I refuse to believe it facebook jacobin comments, literally saw some young looking liberal after some of the more hosed stuff came out say "i was totally wrong about morales a few days ago and i should have been more careful i apologize" as well as the entire general and overwhelming tone in every progressive forum, including reddit stuff, shift towards calling this a coup and being against it. the thread in D&D is a decent microchasm - even the liberals there aren't really trying to take the cute nuanced position anymore (though who knows if they will have actually learned anything from this) this is just my feel from online stuff though, not a single person at my workplace gives a gently caress. but within the marginal left circles that i read and comment in, the anti-coup people seem to be hounded out and it happened so fast that even the most ADD, naive, and undisciplined leftists can read the tea leaves here

Doctor Nick posted:It's heartening to see, but I would caution you from drawing conclusions from what people post online. Most people don't bother posting online about news, and they get their news from mainstream media outlets. Mainstream media outlets are still continuing to manufacture consent and push the standard US line. yeah like i said, i understand this is all marginal stuff on the "paying attention to poo poo" left, but i think consolidating that sphere with incredibly vibrant examples of Stupid Imperialism is illustrative to a lot of people who otherwise might have remained rather wooly the average age of the person watching MSNBC is 65 and it's harder to control narratives, as much as various state and private actors try to manipulate those narratives

vyelkin posted:it's because the fascists actually took power in bolivia and started enacting fascism which made it hard for libs to keep defending, whereas in venezuela guaido remained schrodinger's president and so no one could definitively prove that he would have set up death squads we can’t know for sure what would happen if the right wing in venezuela took over though.. that would be unfounded assertions and they might be genuine about restoring democracy. if you oppose guaido just because he is against maduro then, well, that’s a pretty typical tankie attitude. anyway i am going to credulously believe this venezuelan who just registered an account today, writes perfect english, and refuses to say what their ideological point of view is
