What events caused most of South America to have dictators in the 1900s? Was it class warfare?, was it corruption?, was it reactionism?
They wanted to go on a fun helicopter ride :^)

It was the United States.

Dialectic necessicity

Ameriklaps put them all in
>>1143682
it kind of pisses me off how the US support or ignored the atrocities in South America because they wanted to save face.
>Military Junta is better than socialism
Class warfare mostly.
The same problem Latin America has always had.
It stems from the Spanish social structure and plantation agriculture.
>>1143694
It is though.
>>1143694
Considering how Cuba turned out, it was safe to assume that socialist policies dont quite work out.

>Military junta provides 3000 commies with free helicopter tours
>socialist dictatorship causes millions to starve
>>1143712
Hop in bootlicker

>Cuba goes communist in 1959
>Southern Cone countries adopt military rule in the mid 70s
>Southern Cone military juntas are all ousted by the 90s
>Cuba is still communist
Better an end with horror than a horror without end.

US corporations wanted monopolies

Yeah higher literacy and life expectancy must be terrible
>>1143742
Yes, let's ignore what the couple million Cuban diaspora who actually lived in Cuba have to say about it.
>>1143742
darker green is better, Cuba is lower on the development index than the former junta nations.
>muh embargoes

>The United States is a failed state, just ask all the British loyalists in Canada!
>>1143774
>Argentina and Chile were the test cases for US backed dictatorships
>Peru and Colombia were the most democratic states in the region
I'm not sure what you're trying to say, but all I'm getting is that you're gay.

Left wing terrorism.

Murrikuh funded most of them to prevent communism from spreading in Latam.
>>1143786
I figured as much
>>1143795
What, going to protect the USSR as the dindus here? They were dictator-crazed for the opposite reason.
>>1143798
at least it was obvious that the USSR was evil, the US and NATO put on the "good guy" face while funding tyrants
>>1143821
So did the USSR. They pretended to be striving for world peace while having the largest nuclear arsenal on Earth and funding terrorist groups left and right.
>>1143775
You didn't have British loyalists pouring into the U.S. some 40 years after the war ended like the 30,000 some odd Cubans that manage to leave Cuba a year.
Great false equivalence though.
