The opinion piece kind of suggests that LATAM doesn't need to worry about Russia & China because they don't have a history of being exploited by them first-hand.

On the other hand it glosses over that they have exploitation victims elsewhere — in the past, in the now, and show no change or betterment towards the future.

Ok, we will do as we please, if we want to ally with them it's out thing, what are you going to do? Coup us all and install fascist regimes as you have always done?

Quite an aggressive reply... but

We can send support when they need to get rid of the fascist regimes from the "allies". International solidarity.

So Europe will send support when US installs fascist regimes?

[-] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago

Sure. US, China, Russia, whoever. People should keep each other's backs

Given past history I highly doubt Europe would lift a single finger to help fight a dictatorship, much less an US backed one lol. It's not like they care about anything outside of their mediterranean bubble.
