Hello! I just want to hear from someone on the ground with the Guatemalan perspective how this has impacted your society in 2023. Muchísimas gracias a usted para la respuesta.

I'm from Guatemala also but I'm also Dominican but I'm full American scene I'm born in the U.S, which means I'm half Guatemalan and half dominican

Actually i call it karma.

Well deserve karma.

I doubt they lost anything

@@KailamiMwiingathey had to be purchased and don’t exist anymore

@@Nach0s187 so they morphed to something else?

It’s makes UFC’s plan to overthrow Guatemala government look like dumbass and idiotic. Also so that Company should better off by simply move on to next country that willing pay money their business.

​@@cap.meruwkateklimana8321true.

Well, good for United Fruit company. This company to this very day--now called Chiquita Brands International is the lowest form of human life on the face of this Earth! They have cause endless misery, hate, and bloodshed from 1954-1996 in Guatemala and other Central American countries! NO ONE SHOULD EVER GIVE A FLYING FUCK ABOUT HOW WELL THIS COMPANY IS DOING! The former United Fruit Company--now Chiquita Brands is for sure the American Hitler.

@@cap.meruwkateklimana8321but u see that takes reason and brains something a bunch of old bags lack

By any chance do you remember the titles?

That's true👍 And world would have been a more peaceful place.. 🙄

The United States's people are kidnapped by a corrupt, Masonic and unscrupulous elite.

Don't forget businessmen from the other counties and countless revolutionaries sponsored by USSR, Cuba and China

"might" really carrying a lot of weight lol

@@CiiTiiZzeN Yes, it unambiguously would have been.

in Portuguese the order is reversed (i.e. the mother's surname is first and the father's surname is second) and using either name is fine

And other South American countries like Bolivia, Argentina, Peru, Brazil, etc

Yes the US was far more brutal in its spheres of influence, the americas, and invaded far more often than the ussr did in eastern europe, its not even close.

Until it happens in their country. Given our Republicans being the upstanding people they are it may come sooner or later

​@@frankieseward8667 it's weird how many Americans wish the worst for their country .

Yeah so what?

​@@missmiss8359 Its really not if you've lived here and seen the utter disdain and brutality with which the government treats the people the only thing worse than living under americas domestic policy is being a victem of it its foreign policy. Only an ignorant outsider who knows nothing about us could say something like that. the george floyd protests for example were brutally crushed by police brutality, freedom of speech is a myth. Cops shoot people like dogs and then when people protest police brutality the only response is more police brutality. The us is on paper the richest country on the planet, so it 100% could fix any of these problems if it wanted- but us health indicators - life expectancy, infant mortality, maternal morality are third-world, and beaten by poor countries like Cuba. Most of us are one medical emergency away from bankruptcy and hundreds of thousands don't have insurance at all Public transit is nonexistant out of NYC and every single city is built around cars, you can't afford one you basically don't exist, there's 0 maternal leave so women are forced back to work literally days after giving birth, its barbaric Child labor is absolutly rampant in factories and agriculture work, on levels with the gilded age. Cops are lawaless, violent, and corrupt and can kill basically with impunity civil rights and voting rights act have been chipped away at for decades and are barely enforced. Its not a good place to live for average people, and most places worse are places the us has invaded, couped, bombed or sanctioned. depends what you mean by country I care about the people who live here but not the government or the army or the military industrial complex.

Totally

Murder is not confirmed but usually yes.

It had nothing to do with it.

Do go on.

While you ought be a staunch American imperialist, you have to also recognize that the Guatemalan government was not threat to US interests. Further, most of (if not all) of the opponents of military dictatorships were not communists. Negating your claims of communism

People like you is why 9/11 happened

Talk about a boot licker. Guate.ala wasn't even communist when the US overthrew its government. This is just justification for genocide.

​@@samuelvasquez-reyes2974yeah, the claim that "we're just fighting communism" doesn't hold any water. No, you're just fighting for the profits of the fruit companies.

Albeit one who can’t spell😂.

So are we. Please google "Guatemalan genocide" or "Mayan genocide"

It has been internationally recognized as one by numerous international bodies, numerous people are in prison for crimes relating to genocide, and it meets every criteria of the definition.

Really tired of YT Reactionaries whine’n about definitions of things in general, but especially without any context for how genocide is defined by say the U.N. for example. This falls under that definition, sorry for your consternation by things being called by what happened.

​@@chriss780No, it has not. The guy's conviction was over-turned.

​@@AloisWeimarIt does not though.

Jai Shree Ram!

?

Russia is aligned with China now, meaning that India is no longer aligned with them.

Why people in the USA don't want to do what the USA wants?

​@@qZbGmYjS4QusYqv5Because we know best for you.
