I think you are underestimating the grip the right has on the media here and will continue to have. RFE is superfluous when there are other, better media outlets to spread their shit, and not just traditional press. In any case the absence of US influence will just leave a niche for the local bourgeois media.
Yes of course, fascists will continue to have their cultural hegemony that they inherited from US efforts to suppress the left. What I'm suggesting is that this can only be a permanent condition as a result of external force, and the steady state condition is a tendency toward class consciousness as material conditions worsen. It's like there was a magnet that was holding a pendulum all the way to the right, but now the magnet has released and the pendulum will swing to the left (over several years, of course, not immediately). It'll swing back, dialectics, but having a weaker local enemy is always preferable to having an untouchable international enemy.
It's to launder fascism into the liberals.
