glad you enjoyed it!
There are definite "smells" of CIA here, particularly the drug running and arms trafficking networks based out of Florida.
oh, for sure. can guarantee that one.
I had no idea the US had invaded Haiti. For 20 years no less!
ikr? and Haiti didn't do nothing to oppose the US' sanctions or their looting of Haiti but still got invaded anyways.
It seems it was really the earthquake that broke Haiti's back, just textbook disaster capitalism. Like, I hated the Clintons before but fuck I hate them even more now, somehow.
the leader of the recovery commission of Haiti being clinton - and not even a Haitian - really pissed me off too
Where are the Marxists I wonder?
not sure, and i plan to find out next. only marxist views i've seen are non-Haitians who equally blame all sides - government, imperialists and "gangs" - without considering why those armed groups exist for example.
i'd imagine class solidarity is quite high in Haiti, especially with cooperative, neighborhood groups provided the most mutual aid there.
my guess is as marxists, we should support these groups directly (funding, volunteering) especially with weapons to outweigh the criminal gangs and pressure them to rehabilitate into their local communities, hopefully preventing conflict.
then shift focus to socialist and marxist groups, kind of like the Cuban revolution. then as one entity, they could hopefully overthrow the state with support from the global south. but again i really don't know for sure.
It does seem that a BRICs aligned peacekeeping force would be the best thing for Haiti based on this video. Some stability and belt and road investments.
yeah, sounds like a good bet.
