Imagine using soft power to influence foreign policy decisions instead of doing the truly alpha move and just buying the country’s infrastructure like a good country like China. Disgusting.
Tbf, the US' track record on coups in SA countries has not been hot as of late. Take Bolivia for instance. Their fixing of the original election was, at best, a 2 star job. They either forgot to rig the second one or did a piss-poor job of it and Anez got voted out. And now she is in jail because she was to stupid to flee the country despite getting essentially a two year head start.
Alphabet boys have been getting pretty sloppy as of late. No real geopolitical adversaries trying to influence south america for two decades is the main reason IMO.
US coups have always been about putting a hand on a scale, not doing all the work themselves (except in Grenada). They are heavily dependent on their domestic allies to not be r-slurred.
Indeed. Compare Anez to Batista. He had 100% less time, a literal armed insurgency chasing him and was pretty much on his last legs with the CIA and he still made it out of Cuba with most of his money.
She, on the other hand, lost an election and literally just went back to her house and stayed their until the police came two years later. Idk what your opinions are on Morales, but that is just stupid.
Makes sense that they would distribute some in the neighboring countries since that iswhere Venezuelans were fleeing. Especially if the trucks are being stopped and burned when they try to go to Venezuepa. But how do you "reroute "it all the way to Somalia?
You have 4 links and not one of them is to information. The signal to noise ratio of the shit I've read from your links is absolutely abysmal, nobody with a working brain would put time into reading such drivel, let alone attempt to use it in place of information sources. If basic income actually failed, you could give at least some semblance of a concise explanation of the failure, or at least have one of your four links lead to something data-focused, instead of being like "here's an opinion, now immerse yourself in verbose repititions of that opinion for a half hour since hopefully that's enough to make you agree with it." You are a prime brainwashee and the reason Trump will win again.

Burgers can't even their own infrastructure.

They can just nationalize the shit out of the infrastructure. Which they did before

I suppose South American countries have a reason to be paranoid about US backed coupes but it still seems pretty r-slurred.

Well it’s because the millennials become old enough to lead the operations.

Just wait until the zoomers end up running the show.

We have the CCP now, and we're still doing a shit job at it. CIA is just useless at this point.

Surely this will be the end of Maduro!

He won't leave power till he's eaten every crumb of food in the country.

Mmm enchiladas

Must be why Guadio is so thin. Either that or the US only feeds him when he succeeds.
