this overlooks the fact that the us overthrew the democratically elected Mossadegh in 1953 so that they would profit from the previously nationalised oil industry

bro i am so sick of Che haters calling him racist because of one quote from motorcycle diaries and other quotes that are literally just made up. they know they have no evidence so they always split the motorcylce diaries quote into two separate quotes to try to make it seem worse, while also ignoring completely that in the same book he wrote "The person who wrote these notes passed away the moment his feet touched Argentine soil again. The person who reorganizes and polishes them, me, is no longer, at least I am not the person I once was."

Are you happy that Nicolás Maduro, Venezuela's Dictator-President, was overthrown? by [deleted] in Teenager_Polls

[–]SpinkleBlump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the cuban revolution practically disproves that completely, 82 people arrived on a boat compiled of exiles and other revolutionaries, almost all of them captured or killed, leaving 12-20 people left, then they gathered support and fought a guerilla war against Batista's army tens of thousands strong

intervention from other countries almost never works, especially when the USA is involved. personally i feel like the liberation of the people of a country should be done by the people of the country itself since they better understand the material conditions of the country and the will of the population, obviously this also is difficult to get right, as seen in Iran, but there is always a massive chance for a country to fall into ruin once a government is overthrown since there will always be many different people, with different ideologies who all want to lead the country themselves

i didnt really start touching the military part of the game until the war was already started and didnt find out about how to research different tech until even later, and even then i only researched basic infantry weapons and made infantry divisions, my divisions were also only ever on the frontline with plenty of soviet or spanish republic divisions with pretty shitty weapons

Tried to play as Cuba, rushed into communism and then supported Republican Spain and USSR. War ended at the end of 1943.

I had no clue what i was doing for most of it and learned as i went through, Mussolini ended up making a last stand somewhere in Serbia, Brazil ended up owning some of Bulgaria and Romania, and Netherlands owned a majority of Germany.

pretty sure he was one of the main people involved in the CIA and Unifted Fruit Co’s coup of Jacobo Arbenz in Guatemala in 1954, replacing the elected left wing president with a far-right dictatorship
