Yes this is about Contra, but the fact she literally only considered US citizens in her analysis is telling. Like not a single argument about foreign policy, or concern about people 30 centimetres over the border occurred to her.
And all the Dem Socialist reply guys are arguing against her on her terms. Like fucking hell, are you Internationalists or not? Fuck how large the US left is, you're fighting for the Whole Left! I understand revolt in the Imperial core is both important and difficult, but jfc!
I'm afraid I'm going third-worldist here (for values of third world that include, like, Germany and Spain.)
They talk about celebrating the Bolivian results in defeating the CIA, but then say how everyone must support Biden, the man who wants to increase foreign interference and CIA influence so the US can be more successful in pulling off coups. They need to at least acknowledge they are supporting a man who wants to harm these countries. But then maybe they don't even know about it because they don't follow or care about foreign politics.
honestly i worry that if hillary won, maybe venezuela and bolivia would be in a lot worse trouble, and possibly war with iran. i wouldnt want to support a candidate who would destroy the future of other countries more efficiently than we do now

Not to pull a debate nerd move, but this is fully counterfactual. A competent Clinton administration could very well have crushed Bolivia, and maybe even Venezuela or Iran, but the empire was already in such a state of decline that a second Clinton administration was not in the cards. If the empire were running like a well oiled machine, we would have got Clinton, but the fact of the matter is that it was already breaking down like an old car.
If everything were running smoothly in the imperial core and we still had the capacity to do this shit, we would not have ended up with Trump in the first place. Again, Trump is a symptom of the rot, not the cause of our imperial embarrassments.

Latin America would have been in big trouble had Hillary won. Hillary would not have killed Soleimani, though.
