      Barefaced imperialism: James Stavridis—a former military commander of NATO and retired US Navy admiral who writes op-eds for billionaire Michael Bloomberg's website—boasts that Brazil's election of fascist Bolsonaro "completes a US sweep of South America"https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2018-10-30/brazil-s-bolsonaro-completes-a-u-s-sweep-of-south-america …

      I repeat for the umpteenth time: capitalism and imperialism infinitely prefer fascism over socialism. Capitalist imperialism wholeheartedly embraces fascists, while murdering socialists. This ex-commander of U.S. Southern Command is bragging about thishttps://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2018-10-30/brazil-s-bolsonaro-completes-a-u-s-sweep-of-south-america …

          I didn’t think this was a bragging tone. More that the shift to the right would have some positive effects economically and militarily while creating tensions towards human rights and democracy.

          Positive effects militarily? What is positive about partnering up with the USA’s war machine? This article is disgusting.
