It can be in the format of documentaries, articles or books. I would like to know more about this other side.
Some of that info was declassified/made public.
“Killing Hope” was written by former intelligence officer Bill Blum (think that was the name) and details such operations (though not limited to socialist countries).
I’ll try to find some links on the subject and edit my reply to include them but it may be a day or two.
Your essays are a great read as a starting point!
Thank you, but they are not my essays! They are by @dessalines@lemmy.ml, one of the creators of lemmy.
Thanks for the links!
It’s classified.
Communist countries sabotage themselves.
AES countries are not bastions of perfection, every country faces struggles and works to overcome them, and Socialists recognize this. At the same time, this post is specifucally referencing US sabotage.
While true, it’s not what OP asked for. There have been a range of cases of both, and I’m not just referring to the CIA’s X number of attempts to kill Castro.
Two things can be true
Side tangent, but I wish people would recognize that more. You didn’t disprove something by providing ANOTHER fact.
Wikipedia has a list which isn’t specific to that or complete, but still might be a good starting point.
To be clear, that’s with respect to regime change, not general interference like biological warfare or mass bombing campaigns, slaughtering civilians, etc. Or other standard US war crimes against lefties worldwide.
Yeah. It’s not a perfect fit but there’ll be a certain amount of overlap and all sorts of fascinating stuff in there.
Best to ask your question on hexbear or lemmygrad. I’m sure that there are at least a few people there that will have answers for you
Nah, asking here will get much more reasonable lists.
Why?
I think you’ll get more of a highlight list of the really atrocious actions by the west - there were some absolutely awful actions taken “to defeat socialism”.
I don’t see why Lemmy.ml would be better than Hexbear or Lemmygrad in listing US interference.
I, too, am curious 👀
