    It seems la CIA will be trafficking fentanyl to Argentina in a few months and introduce opiates into the region.

      Sounds like a deal between compradors and the imperialiasts, the libertarios will let them in gladly, no threat needed.

    Can we stop calling things that aren’t viruses and bacteria “epidemic”? There is nothing in fentanyl itself that makes it spread. Just like we don’t have an anxiety or depression “epidemic”, but many people are anxious and depressed. Ascribing agency to things, removes agency from the people (agents) who actually spread/sell that stuff.

    This is absolutely just her drumming up a case for intervention. She sees China’s B&R as an existential threat to the US and see the entirety of South America as nothing more than raw material.

    Chinese investment is really extraction, Richardson said. Not just in terms of cash or natural resources, but also strategic positions. The general described a recent flight over the Panama Canal where she saw Chinese state-owned enterprises on both sides of the canal that could be turned quickly toward military capabilities.

    “I think we should be concerned, but this is a global problem,” she said.
