the new president of colombia starts today:
an atheist who found god conveniently during campaign, and fundies love him even when the year before was against god
he identifies himself as a tiger because milei got the lion before
wants to close palestine’s embassy and restore the zionist embassy because he is a vassal of trump and he has american citizenship
will remove capture order against bibi because being for palestine is something for “dirty zurdos”
he wants to larp as bukele and milei because rightoids love bukele
wants to disembowel leftists and opposition
their party tries to pass a law with an anticommunist week in schools copying USA
he stole elections with help of trump and a corporation linked to fraud in USA and other countries (thomas greg and sons)
give your support for colombia and pray for the ELN and iran give a lesson to this worm
i genuinely don’t get how south-american rightists still manage to present themselves as “patriotic”, when they have such an obvious disdain for their own people and such a glaring inferiority complex towards the yanks.
in my learning, anticommunist propaganda make people lean into a clear conman rather than an apparent communist, because those wage workers without workers benefits want to save the property that they possess on credit and they don’t want to see expropiated the house they live on rent
It’s all about the Benjamins, baby.
The idea of “patriotism” is an American cultural export. People loved their countries before, chuds are “patriotic”. This wave flagging hand in chest national anthem singing thing is not “patriotism”, it’s Americanism.
So yeah, these chuds are “patriotic”, as in they are fully absorbed into american cultural exports and basically act like American chuds in every way.
huh, interesting. this seems to be somewhat of a latin american regional peculiarity.
the country i’m originally from used to use the term patriotism quite differently back during the socialist era, teaching people to be proud of the socialist and internationalist homeland.
later, during the crises and wars of the 90s, you kind of had two parallel uses: on the one hand, you had the more genuine and positive use by people striving to preserve our culture and identity in the face of western and western-backed assault, but on the other hand, you had the criminal and treacherous governments, who were responsible for the catastrophe in the first place, leveraging such feelings as a smokescreen for their actions. that latter “chest-thumping and flag-waving” type of “hurrah-patriotism” is still commonly utilised by the bourgeois dictatorship whenever it needs to hide some crime or other, though it has semi-recently been increasingly superseded by atlanticist factions trying to introduce a kind of “western identity,” which is quite absurd given our history and geographical location, but sadly seems to be working scarily well.
in the western european country i currently live in, meanwhile, it mostly just gets used as a dogwhistle for neo-nazism, lmao.
Yeah no but that’s exactly what I meant.
It’s getting rarer and rarer to see “true” right wing patriots. They are all turning into atlanticists (or us empire-cists).
Prostituting to the US pays better. Political sexwork, if you will.
I don’t even know if that’s it… most of them aren’t even getting paid to do it. Much to the contrary, they are the ones spending their money funding the grift.
A favorite tactic of the empire is appropriate, pervert.
Damn, is Brasil gonna be the only country in South America to not elect a Trump US puppet this year? I really hope we dont get another Bolsonaro here, especially since were surrounded with far right puppets this year
we lost Perú, now Brasil é chave. ✊😞
Yeah, the future here is uncertain as hell. Even if Lula wins again, it won’t change the fact that we are at the backyard of a dying empire.
Agora depende de você…
Good luck. USA conquest through $$$, Hitler through armaments.
i mean, bolsonaro is too incompetent to actually win this one, but they might try couping brasil yet again.
they 100% ARE cooking something. whether it will be as pathetic as last time remains to be seen.
then there’s the still unresolved question of sucession after lula…
You are missing just one more topic.
Mercenary hiring will increase with this new president. Fascists like this will appear way more frequently now and I suspect that this president will make it way easier for people to join:
The way I see it, the US is tightening it’s grip on South America, because it’s failing in Africa. So it means South America will be even more exploited to make up for the losses elsewhere.
This is something people miss when the whole American Global Empire is crumbling.
Even during America’s isolationist phase they ran roughshod over the entire continent.
When are the Colombian elections next
in 4 years, just in time for “agenda 2030 to get into effect”, it seems
This is actually my first time hearing of anti communist week. I actually had to look it up because it’s so shockingly absurd. To no great surprise, it was real. I am mildly surprised that USians at large seem to think that this is normal and rational behaviour.
It must be something new, because not even in my oil-town in Texas, did I ever experience that. Maybe my teachers were not such ardent anti-communists to give a damn. Most kids didn’t give a fuck though, so I doubt it’s effective.
I just confirmed its existence, and didn’t dig further. I’m not sure how widespread it is, but it’s recognised at a federal level.
What’s this about southpaws? That’s such a medieval thing to care about. Next he’s gonna go after people that wear glasses.
