There’s a fundamental difference between the side supporting democratic movements all over the world and the side arming dictators and terrorists to suppress any democratic movements and overthrow democratic governments.
Capitalism necessitates imperialism to maintain the rate of profit.
So that’s Cuba, China, Vietnam, or Laos? Some might argue Venezuela’s democratic socialism isn’t exactly capitalism because the capitalist class nominally isn’t in power.
And you’re saying they have dictators because what exactly? They’re certainly more representative of the people than the average western country given that they’ve largely resisted neoliberal austerity (mostly, I have some criticisms of vietnam’s national insurance policy) so it can’t be that. Is it because they’re not white or because their governments don’t work to help western capitalists exploit their labor and resources?
70 years under siege. We’ve seen what happens when counterrevolutionaries win, it looks like modern Russia.
If that was a siege then every country in the world was under siege by either the US or the USSR at that time.

Nice strawman, but all the non-capitalist countries are still stick with dictators.

Half right
