ive been told every time that i even offer light pushback on criticsm against socialist countries in the global south that these are imperialist countries that commit atrocities and im being a total hypocrite by 'supporting' them and that most socialists in global south actually oppose and hate these countries.
is this just bad-faith liberal bullshit? how would one even respond to that?
actually makes sense, we're the 5th largest pop in the world and about half of all of south america (and a third of latam)
that one is a bit more complicated yea, it's critical support (to me, because they didn't go far enough, and because maduro has some right-wing deviations that suck - like, the FAES is trash)

sorry, 5th largest by territory and 6th largest by pop because apparently pakistan has surpassed us (it kinda got stuck with me that we were 5th/5th, but populations change lmao)
it's like our BOPE, a heavily militarized police that does a lot of bad shit in poor neighborhoods hunting "criminals"
