What we are seeing play out in #Haiti and across social media with all of these bogus odes to Bukele is Full Spectrum U.S. Dominance. Anyone with any amount of anti-imperialist sense knows that #Bukele, #Prince & #Rubio will never be saviors of the Haitian masses. They represent their own interests and those of imperialism. Up to this point, with all of their drones & Haitian underlings, they have only murdered more innocents & the ti solda yo (the child soldiers of the gangs). Not one warlord who has done their bidding for years has been touched. The Haitian people could clean up this paramilitary mess spawned by U.S. g*ns, the cocaine trade and international meddling, but they have intentionally been disarmed and displaced since 2018 by the paramilitary gang project. At the same time, one has to understand this crisis dialectically. If you were burned out of your home & neighborhood in Port-au-Prince & Latibonit by paramilitary gangs, how would you feel right now about the gangs being on their back foot for the first time? If you were living homeless in the streets or in a make-shift displacement camp, and finally after years, some force was coming that was going to confront these paramilitary gangs, who would you be rooting for? Viv Ansanm & Gran Griff, the paramilitary gangs, will use the masses as Human Shields. They will bribe them and coerce them to do coordinated marches, even using false patriotic rhetoric to make it look like the paramilitaries care about the communities they have raped, burned & massacred. From the perspective of the masses, Haiti is occupied by 2 foreign armies, who have always had the same mission: to subjugate them. Now that Barbecue & the paramilitaries, armed to the teeth with the most sophisticated U.S. weapons, finished their mission of destabilizing Haiti, they now serve as the colonial excuse for massive invasion and occupation, just like Noriega, Saddam & Bin Laden did at one point. The chief victims of the ongoing War on Haiti are its everyday people who only desire to be left alone to pursue a future free of colonial violence and trauma. The winners are the weapons manufacturers, the drug trade & the opportunistic cowards like Bukele, Prince & Rubio who get to play “savior” for SM.
