    I meant the “for over a hundred years” part specifically, I bolded it but it’s not as noticeable as it should be.

      oh yeah for sure. Dude they orchestrated a coup and took over Hawaii in the like 1800s.

      Plus I think there was fuckery in Latin America even back then.

        The Monroe Doctrine has been a guiding principle of American geopolitics since its conceptualization in 1823, whether or not America has had the power to necessarily enforce it.

        The goal is clear, the Western Hemisphere is America’s property to do with as it pleases and interference will not be tolerated.

        Just the history of Haiti alone and the Banana Wars in general proves the point for at least 100 years.
