    Yes… while it’s obviously hard to be anti-US in the US’s backyard, it’s a case like Venezuela where the only way to be nominally leftist is to install a tinpot dictator who’s in the pocket of China and/or Russia rather than in the pocket of the US which is frankly not worth it for the people (who get no say in the elections as they’d vote for stability under the thumb of their neighbour with a flawed system rather than poverty and dictatorship under a system which may in theory work better, and dictators aren’t about to let themselves get voted out)
