the US has historically offered lots of support to latin american regimes it supported in a coup it's just that support tends to be training and material support for torture, riot control, counter-insurgency, death squads, and other forms of oppression and politically defending the regime in the united nations

we're bringing freedom and democracy, we'll be greeted as liberators, you must support saddam hussein, you must support a brutal dictator that gasses his own people, etc. all were definitely playing around with the humanitarian cards

so thomas friedman has a master of philosophy in middle eastern studies and was cited as a scholar, culminating in "suck on this" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwFaSpca_3Q is there a scholar with a phd in latin american studies similarly advocating bombing latin america into the dirt being cited?

fnox posted:ok, evidence of what specifically are you talking about? because I can probably find it. the US literally bombed and couped libya on the absurdly flimsy justification that there was going to be atrocities, not that atrocities had happened during the civil war "killing hope" is a tome full of the US fabricating claims to justify bombing and overthrowing governments all over latin america during the cold war propaganda about the horrors of the maduro regime was blasted constantly into literally every american household with a tv, radio, or internet connection no one should trust any of your analysis on US foreign policy and coup attempts. my suggestion to you is to read killing hope so you have an idea about how american foreign policy works

you could have searched for something that is problematic and full of bias with no evidence, but you had to choose simply pointing a camera at wealthy neighborhoods in venezuela as your hill to die on for why they should get banned from youtube lmao

it's really simple pro-coup narratives funded by the government (e.g. the bbc) or private corporations (e.g. msnbc) are okay anti-coup narratives should be banned from social media

i'd have to take back my criticisms if you were also calling for banning cnn, msnbc, the bbc, etc. from social media so that your arguments are consistent, but i suspect this is not your position

showing that opposition wealthy neighborhoods are doing fine and have stocked grocers is not an attempt to say there is no food or economic crisis in venezuela. what is being demonstrated is that the food crisis is selective and not universal, most of venezuela's economy is privatized, venezuela has very large inequality, and the wealthy who want to coup maduro for their own interests are living comfortably.

in case you're unaware, the wealthy strata of latin america has a long history of colluding with the US and the dictators and puppets they back to support their own interests and murder, torture, and oppress the non-wealthy sitting back in material comfort while the US and death squads run around causing chaos and misery to try to install a puppet government or get the masses so immiserated they overthrow the current government has precedent

like read literally any of the latin american chapters in killing hope or any book about US imperialism in latin america instead of supporting the US puppet and narrative backed by donald trump, elliot abrams, and loving john bolton
