Your fears are valid, of course, but I genuinely think that the violent flailing of the US Empire that is going on right now is out of desparation, and won’t actually work out. It will be messy, though.
enough of it is working in latin-american and asia (ie nepal) right now to warrant this fear because the oligarchical powers on each country are doing it themselves and on behalf of the us empire; the us doesn’t have to expend much of any effort at all re-enforcing its control in the americas.
milei cozying up to trump to the tune of 20 billions dollar and both machado & tellez publicly inviting him to invade venezuela and mexico (respectively) with that latter being significantly more concerning since she’s as an active senator and her party is in full support of her and is also the largest political rival to sheinbaum/morena and also enjoys the us empire’s full support.
Yeah we need to organize more and fight this kind of bs. There will always be people willing to sell out, so we can count on them having support. On the other hand the cracks are showing, if we agitate enough we can prevent the worst from happening in many countries, and accelerate the demise of the empire. We won’t win every battle, we just need them to lose some.
I don’t think popular support for Sheinbaum and Maduro should be underestimated. Opposition to them does exist, of course, and the US Empire is relying on it, but the reason they’ve been successful thus far lies in their popular support.
I don’t think invasion is up, I think it will either be special forces units kidnapping or killing Maduro, or training death squads. They tried a mini Bay of Pigs, and they were caught by fishermen.
No, that’s just an incompetent despot calling the shots. There is enough money and momentum in the US that everyone better fucking hope a more competent piece of shit doesn’t take power when Tacoman dies.
That’s not what I said. I didn’t say they’re self-sufficient. I said they have the momentum to royally fuck shit up on the way down, especially if someone remotely competent starts pulling the strings.

we’re going to find out how far organizing will take us if the us ends up invading venezuela.

i suspect we’re going to find out how far popular support will go once the us invades or blockades venezuela.

Nah, the world is dedollarizing and the US Empire doesn’t have the industry to keep going.

It will certainly be messy, I agree.
