NICANOTES: “LIVE FROM NICARAGUA : UPRISING OR COUP?”

[popularresistance.org]

(This has bathed the region’s history in blood and resistance, which is why the desperate migrant caravan from the northern triangle of the isthmus is in fact the offspring of U.S. imperialism.)

We can't emphasize enough when debating our immigration problems that they are due to our own interference in countries south of us! For over a century we have been terrorizing countries south of us for resources and profits of global corporations. While masking this agenda with false claims of humanitarian issues under tyrant leaders of socialist countries. When we and the westernized world are the real socialist tyrants serving out the humanitarian crisis. Only our sense of socialism is meant to benefit the oligarchs.

(Since 2007, hope and life have been redefined with the return of the Sandinista Front to government. The absolute number of undernourished people in the country has been reduced by half, access to free education and health care has been guaranteed to rural communities, maternal mortality has been reduced by 60% and infant mortality by 52%, while access to electricity has been increased from 54% to 96% of the country’s population.

Nicaragua is the safest country in Central America, and is in sixth place globally for women’s participation in public and civic spaces. Life in the countryside has recovered dignity, thanks to a policy that prioritizes and values the family economy, making it possible to reduce food imports and become 100% self-sufficient in beans, corn, eggs, milk, fruits, onions, peppers, tomatoes and beef.)

But when you have something the west want, these things are unacceptable, will not be tolerated. How dare a country such as this Cuba and Venezuela set such an example!

(The coup’s media blitzkrieg used the advertising pages of Facebook to spread lies, foment hatred and encourage violence—accusing the Sandinistas of the violence against Sandinistas.)

Where is our social media oversight on fake news when it's really needed!!!

(In practice, everyone learned from everyone, and natural leaders emerged from the heart of the neighborhoods who often were not part of any of the official structures of the Sandinista Front.)

This is the importance of getting the truth of the delusional reality around us out is about. For we might some day be in this very situation as our country keeps going towards fascism. Or we'll get this.

(The elite in Nicaragua has long believed that the people are ignorant, or “innocent” as the oligarchy’s newspaper, La Prensa, puts it. They assumed that if denied their ability to live normally and safely, Nicaraguans would demand a new government.)

Which is exactly what they are attempting to do in Venezuela today. Scare the population into demanding a new government under false narratives that it can't operate effectively. If you watched the video of Richard Wolff I posted earlier, you'll find why that overthrow has been taking so long. The majority of Venezuelans aren't ignorant!
