nah my family was highly involved. our hometown is olanchito in honduras which is literally the same place ramón amaya amador is from and was describing in prisión verde when he fled to your country before its untimely coup. typical palestinian shit from the '22 generation lmao
well shes relatively biased considering her family were heavily involved in building railroads for the united fruit company to ship their plantation crops out of the country lol. she is even so insane as to keep an american flag in her home because of how much she loves america. I wouldn’t say its necessarily idiocy than self-interest
thats funny because my grandma loves taiwan for the exact same reason. she is also always talking about how great the united fruit company is which is a hilariously out-of-touch opinion
its not being owned by the country its being owned by a corrupt bourgeois family. honestly how naive must you be to trust these people while they pander to anti-americans. Ortega is probably the richest person in nicaragua its hard to say with howmany assets he has hidden but he is probably richer than Pellas
I can assure you that the vast majority of people in the world, and probably the united states, are not as clued up about white supremacist phraseology as you and when they hear the term western culture don’t immediately start to think of roman salutes and blood quantum
not knowing spanish definitely plays a large part but I think more importantly they don’t have to be bothered to live in and experience these places so they’re perfectly fine remaining some idealized mental construct. its easy for them to imagine third world countries being full of rabid america haters and the politicians there being diametrically opposed to all cooperation with america rather than imagine that they’re the same kind of self-interested assholes you find across the world. if ortega nationalizes some gas station chain its because he hates the west not because he wants to make himself and his family richer. any action can be construed as “socialistic” if you view it through this anti-america lens
they speak lots of english in vietnam doesn’t make vietnam western. and there are different types and styles of colonization and imperialism it’s not just a one mode thing
I’m palestinian honduran so I wouldn’t even bother trying to argue with the few people I’d run into that seriously consider race what makes someone western. I still don’t see why it matters so much to american leftists tho. is bashing on the west too awkward for them if you include poorer countries in the americas and balkans? I don’t get the point in bashing anyway I’m not gonna feel guilty for being born in the west
the phillipines speaks over 100 malayo-polynessian languages and zambia speaks a similar number of bantu languages. neither of them speak english as a primary language nor do they have the same connection to the west that latin america does
all i’ve understood is you hate america and see guyana as an america puppet so you support venezuela doing whatever and them happening to have a claim to the region going back to the spanish empire is just a convenient excuse
the monroe doctrine definitely included canada after it stopped being a UK colony. and what does americans thinking latin america being full of germans have to do with anything?
