Just thinking out loud here, but isn’t it highly likely that these mercenaries were hired by a Haitian entity looking to subvert the democratic process, as opposed to being some giant international/interdimensional conspiracy?

the guy had been in office a year after he was supposed to leave and he refused to leave so I'm not exactly seeing how this was subverting democracy honestly

C-SPAM is explicitly a shitposting zone so you can take glib "it was the CIA" posts too literally.

Gosh where have we heard that one before?

10 years from now it's gonna be fun explaining to people that I used to post on the website that created the hot new domestic terror movement, and that's why I'm on the no-fly list.

Well yeah, but that still means they can't all be taken literally right up until the point they can.

Since this thread is one big derail, how is Tropico 6? I have it on my Steam wishlist and passed on it when it was on sale before.

Americans did it maybe.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2021/07/08/haiti-president-assassinated/

quote:

A U.S. citizen of Haitian descent has been arrested in connection with the assassination of Haitian President Jovenel Moïse, a senior official here said Thursday.

James Solages, a U.S. citizen, is among the six people arrested in Moïse’s killing, according to Mathias Pierre, Haiti’s minister of elections and inter-party relations. Pierre told The Washington Post that at least one other detainee is also believed to be a Haitian American. Four other suspects have been killed, authorities have said.
