Wasn’t the argument for Morales being coupes because he exceeded term limits? But those term limits had been ruled unconstitutional by their Supreme Court? The counter was like the Supreme Court was full of Morales’s party members so it didn’t count. This is some how different from the US Supreme Court how?

Also remember people saying uh you can’t say the CIA was involved because no evidence but the fact that the entire US media was ready to go in lock step saying the military over throwing an elected official was not a coup is pretty strong reason to think that. Plus you know the entire history of the US and that region for the last 100ish years.

let's all just be incredibly clear that the Dems aren't failing to pass the minimum wage increase because they are spineless, cowards, strategically incompetent. none of that is true. The Dems are failing to pass the minimum wage increase because they don't want to pass it, and their usual method of defying their base is to pose the situation as inevitable/intractable and address the whole ordeal with a sort of angsty third wayism. Obama era austerity worked the exact same way

Evo had real issues, but tribalism means that internet leftists dont like to talk about them and rather pretend they dont exist. So it goes. Not excusing or justify the coup. Glad that poo poo failed. Bolivians deserve better.

Manchin and Sinema are just convenient scapegoats. Even if the DnD fever dream of the dems picking up two senate seats in 2022 (lol) comes true, there will just be a new excuse. Anyone who lived through the Obama admin knows that if 60 senators couldn't get anything done, 50 or 52 certainly won't in conclusion everyone who vote scolded for the Democrats is a loving idiot

The argument for couping Morales basically boils down to his party was so popular it had control of most of the government and so it wasn’t “fair.”

Bootleg Trunks posted:Even without the 15$ minimum wage, it's important to remember that the covid bill is still a hefty 1.9tn$ of stimulus that's going to help a lot of people and help the economy get back to its footing. There's a second infrastructure reconcilliation bill that they can probably pass in time for its effects to be felt before the mid terms. Passing 15$ would've been the right thing to do but it isn't essential for their electoral chances by any means. Especially when we consider the following possibilities: It's amazing to me that anyone old enough to have lived through the Obama years would have an opinion like this - do these people not remember people making all the same sort of arguments about "the Republican Party being finished for good"?

FDR was confronted with a growing communist party and militant labor movement. LBJ was confronted with an increasingly radical Black liberation movement, and a growing New Left. Also the Soviet Union was on the world stage and provided an example of development outside of the capitalist model.

It seems to me like it demonstrates an understanding of the lessons of a century of U.S.-Latin American relations that he tried to hold onto power. He saw what happened to Lula, who followed all the rules and got thrown in prison (with the U.S.' help!) for it.

That's not proof of neutrality, which is different from nonpartisanship, and I doubt this reader would have posted that comment if that 22-year veteran were appointed by Mitch McConnell.
