    Strangely enough, a lot of leftists from outside the region seem to think Latin America is default leftist or something when it's anything but.

      our countries have very rich socialist traditions and have been undergoing dirty wars for over half a century. i definitely think there’s at least a more active socialist world for most of our countries than what outsiders would be used to

        It's the ghost of Che haunting the jungles and whispering radicalizing theory into the ears of the sleeping

          I would say being a colony and its consequences plus default capitalism, plus racism are the radicalizing things

      Being colonies plus racism causes a shitton of poverty and overall under-development, which are the perfect growth media for fucking anger that fascism can't really keep at bay cuz surprise motherfucker saying all the problems are caused by brown people doesn't work if the majority are brown.

      Yet capitalism in all its avatars prospered nonetheless thanks to anyone really opposing it being offed or best case scenario ratfucked.
