dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

I wonder how all the violent revolutions have gone?

It goes great until the US deploys counter-revolution and sanctions. Or just invades.

Electoralism has a similar problem, every time progress is made the US deploys the Jakarta method to destroy democracy.

The solution is pretty obvious ๐Ÿ˜

Yeah, this is what Fidel Castro was trying to tell Dr. Allende

Or coupes, can't all of the ones us has done.

Have there been any successful, for the people of the country not wealthy, ones done by the US? ๐Ÿค”

That's the Jakarta method; pay off the military and promote a strongman within the country to destroy the socialist democracy and install a dictator to hunt down socialists for execution or torture. It was the precursor to Operation Condor.
