Everything to do with the USA's own Imperial Backyard. From hispanics to the originary peoples of the americas to the diasporas, South America to Central America, to the Caribbean to North America (yes, we're also there).

Post memes, art, articles, questions, anything you'd like as long as it's about Latin America. Try to tag your posts with the language used, check the tags used above for reference (and don't forget to put some lime and salt to it).

Here's a handy resource to understand some of the many, many colloquialisms we like to use across the region.

Well the united states government at least thought so. Since a lot of (western) maoist could use "soviet imperialism" or "the soviet union has abandoned socialism" (which isnt that untrue, of how Khrushchev acted tbh) to basically disarm soviet support inside the west from the left. Ironic how now the very same people sometimes, do the same to the PRC? Although I am not nearly educated enough to tackle the sino-soviet split or give an adequate informative and productive analysis of that issue.
