Teach this. Not that we are monsters now but that yes our foreign policy was often monstrous. Hopefully less now, but yes, too often. And like any government - of any trading nation - policies (even now) the line between brutality and keeping markets is blurred with blood.
We did despicable things. That other major powers also did is not the point. It’s been Corporations before humans throughout history.
I didn't know any of that. But of course it's not taught in America because it makes us look horrible. So, just pretend it never happened, and poof....gone.
If the MAGAts get their way, there will be a repeat performance in the U.S. My horror vision of Trump and the MAGAts is anyone even remotely liberal will be arrested. There will be violence, with torch bearing peasants out for the blood of Liberals and Democrats.
I'm so tired of big corporations running the world and wrecking it for everyone. I'm really really tired of dumbass capitalism and patriarchy. Sick of the rich doing whatever the fuck they want and fuck everyone else.
Yeah, the CIA is a monstrosity, always has been...everyday Americans aren’t the problem, only power-hungry/ power-seeking ones...why we need to crack our history books bc this shit just keeps going
Not that it particularly matters because, even today, anything that goes against US capital ventures is bad!
(There's also a weird amount of USians claiming themselves to be "Communists". OK, the actual theory isn't bad, and does work on a small scale (thinking of Communes). But considering every nation who has claimed to be Communist has been corrupt as fuck, it's a weird twist.)

I'd love to read your Master's thesis.

I do, as well. I've read about 1930s Germany and the parallels are frightening.

I’ve been aware a long time that our foreign interference is usually a bad thing. 🤦🏼♀️
Typical USian crap that isn't able to distinguish between Socialism and Communism.
