Ask Latin America which they'd rather have colonize them.
- brabel 2mo agoWe don’t want anyone to colonize us just like you don’t want your country to be colonized. China offers business opportunities while the USA and Europe seem to always look down on everyone else and impose their own values on others. China does not give a shit about how we run our countries as long as they can trust that deals will be honored. We don’t want to be taught how great your democracy is or whatever, we want our countries to become better by our own efforts, with fair deals when dealing with other nations.
- amunozo 2mo agoYes, of course, sorry for the expression. I just mirrored the expression used in the parent comment. What I mean is that the US have caused a lot of pain in Latin America.
- cassianoleal 2mo agoThis 100%. We’re neither the back yard of the USA, nor the front yard as Biden said, probably thinking that was a good thing. Get the F off our lawn and stop dumping your rubbish on it!
- brazukadev 2mo ago> We’re neither the back yard of the USA Go tell them, half of my country wants to CONTINUE being the USA backyard.
- cassianoleal 2mo agoThat's a worrying trend in the region.
- matheusmoreira 2mo agoAnd the other half wants to be China's instead. Clearly they are a strategic partner when it comes to AI technology, as for other areas I'm not convinced they would be an improvement.
- matheusmoreira 2mo ago> Get the F off our lawn and stop dumping your rubbish on it! Big words... For a continent with zero nukes and negligible military power. That sort of delusional posturing worked wonders for Venezuela.
- cassianoleal 2mo agoFor once, we are in agreement.
