it's so odd that those threads never seem to get posters claiming to be from one of the many latin american countries under the yoke of brutal neo-liberal austerity/openly fascist governments. every time there's a left wing government to topple there just happens to be some native lurker who has so much to say about how bad the current government is, but apparently there are no native hondurans or brazilians who read this dead forum. very strange!

https://www.en24.news/news/2019/11/10/bolivia-audios-leaked-from-opposition-leaders-calling-for-a-coup-against-evo-morales.html

quote:

A series of 16 audios in which opposition leaders call for a coup against the newly re-elected president Evo Morales were leaked through various social platforms.

Local media point out that the destabilizing plan would have been coordinated by the United States Embassy in Bolivia prior to the elections and cites US senators Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio, who are said to have direct contact with the Bolivian opposition in the strategy to overthrow Morales.

The plan focuses on the fact that if Evo Morales won the elections on October 20, a civil-military transition government would be established. The new government would allege fraud in the electoral process and would not recognize Morales' electoral victory.

In the audios filtered through social platforms opposition leaders call to burn structures of the government party and to put together a general strike throughout the country and to attack the Cuban Embassy in that country.

The publication of the audios arises in the midst of the political crisis following the electoral triumph of Evo Morales, whom the opposition accuses of committing fraud.

Weeks ago in a speech President Evo Morales had referred to alleged coup plans and that his government had the recordings. Neither the opposition nor the United States Embassy has referred to the leakage of the audios.

Given that there's been a huge uproar about indigenous religious practices in right wing Catholic media recently I wonder how many of those people are CIA

I thought those were attacks against Pope Francis because during the Amazon Synod he received Indigeneous religious leaders and said that their practices should be tolerated and the Trads went loving berserk

Evo Morales: I don't want no beef

Mister Bates posted:

so it looks like the coup government has pretty much abandoned most of La Paz to the protesters for today, there were thousands of marchers on the streets but few major clashes with the police and no real attempt to contain or disperse them. the troops are definitely out in large numbers but they're just sort of standing around behind the concrete barriers they're throwing up everywhere. that may change later in the evening, especially when the crowds start to thin out and the police are able to achieve local numerical superiority in a few places, but so far they seem to be focusing on defending a few key intersections and important state infrastructure like the presidential palace.

also they've literally erected walls around the presidential palace and the congressional building, big ol' makeshift walls of sheet metal and plywood topped with barbed wire. the coup happened less than a week ago and they've already gone from triumphantly proclaiming victory to cowering in fortified compounds while mobs gather outside.

the coup plotters still have most of the guns and therefore most of the power, and could easily still pull off a win, but right now in the short term they look confused and uncertain and weak. it's been repeatedly said already, but I think they massively misjudged exactly how much popular support Evo and MAS actually have, and did not go into this prepared to put down an uprising literal days after taking power. they are not acting decisively.

lmfao so I guess they believe their own bullshit then
