Best of the Left - Leftist Perspectives on Progressive Politics, News, Culture, Economics and Democracy #1376 Tell Stories, Not Myths- America is a Force But Not Always For Good (Throwback)
Original Air Date: 10-21-20
Today we take a look at some of the many zany foreign misadventures the United States has had over the past 100 years. And by "zany misadventures" I mean the naked pursuit of capitalism at any cost, the support of military coups and other undemocratic overthrows of foreign governments and wars for oil and resources in an unabashed attempt to keep America wealthy and the rest of the world less so - all while maintaining an anti-imperial, pro-democracy, pro-freedom, live-and-let-live poker face
