LMAO, the ideology is so dishonest too. The day the US participates in a fair competition is the day the US loses.

The US sanctioned Vietnam after it kicked Americans’ asses, and it plunged Vietnam into even further desolation until they were forced to open up and enforced more capitalistic policies. They could’ve done the same with Cuba, but just like how the west will never forgive the USSR for defeating fascism in Europe, the US will never forgive Cuba for defeating US imperialism underneath its nose.

Boomers* are the most miserable people on the planet. I've never seen a group so ready to kill themselves and everyone around them.

*Western boomers

What do you mean boomers lol

If democrats and republicans all got replaced by 20-40 year olds, they would still continue oppressive policies against Latin America and their voters, young and old, will support it.

Ask your average young liberal or young conservative whether or not they want to give stop punishing Cuba and give money and food to Latin Americans so they stop coming to the US. They will look at you like you’re a crazy communist - which I mean is true, but it’s not even because you’re advocating for communism. Hence OP’s comment

I read it initially as the Americans being angry at his proposal and were counting it on their list of reasons to support his political opponents.

Can we really put a price on completely destroying a country just to add it to a supply chain though?

They think the shit produced by the shining city on the hill doesn't roll down

There is though. They wanna plunder other countries and shut out their refugees to keep more for themselves. I go over to your house, trash the place and take all your valuables, go back to my house and lock it tightly so you can't get anything back. I have no interest in improving your situation, my goal is not the cruelty itself but my material benefit at the expense of whoever is a viable victim.

It's all about redistributing resources from the many to the few, to the in-group. Both materially supporting the out-group or letting members of the out-group into the in-group would completely defeat the purpose.
