Me knowing the nazi fuck will probably support uribists, and general conservatives in my country, meaning the current crisis of violence could become even worse, especially if paramilitar movements are back. And if that wasn't already an absolute bummer of a thought, then you have how classic
american imperialism ended in two massacres in less than two years (1927-1929, the tropical oil company massacre in the plains, la masacre de las bananeras by the UFCO, an absolute historical trauma of Colombia). And how his inevitable support of right wingers, means that my beloved Colombia may go
even worse for us LGBTQI+ fellas, looking at the bright side, i'll prolly be living in Bogotá, and last pride month made me very happy as people were able to just chillingly be themselves in public spaces (in Bogotá, i'm fairly sure something bad may or may not have happened in Antioquía).
The US turbocollapse is instructive; this is what happens if we don't pursue left wing policies and governments. Labor has made some gains for workers, and Dutton wants to roll it all back, and seeing the right steamroll due process in the US will embolden the worst parts of the libs.
I mean yes, i also get real sick about what's going in yer country because of the whole empathic element and fearing what'll happen to my fellow LGBTQI+ members, and how a concentration camp, human traphicking and a lebensraum colony all were already announced, and the implications of absolute
human suffering, but there most certainly is an element of relief given by living on a different country, on a bit of a better province (last pride month i saw a lot of fellow LGBTQI+ people in Bogotá, so i thrust the capital now), tho sadly Colombia will prolly suffer a lot from american
Yes, when all the US posts say 'the world is on fire' we have to remember that's what it looks like to them but right now, we are looking at the smoke on the horizon and making plans for what to do if the wind starts to blow the flames our way.
To me the US is a cautionary tale of what can happen if you vote in incompetence and greed.
I wish politicians would get tougher on the bureaucracy and do big things if they have to. But I want to know what, how and why. And it should look like it will help ALL of us, not just the bloody rich!
God people who live in developed countries outside of the american area of influence are so lucky, y'all only have to somewhat worry about what that fuck may try to do, us latinoamericans just have to kinda hope he don't go full on XX century and re do all the fuckin' paraco and massacre bs
Which is extremly unlikely as his main supporter in Colombia are uribists factions, Uribe is a known druglord, paramilitar and a general piece of shit who commited a ton of massacres.

(We're not out of danger, and getting complacent will lead us there).
We need to be vigilant and learn from our friends overseas so we don't end up in a similar situation.
