It takes a little more effort on your part, but there’s an awful lot of good information to pull from this piece.
These are socialists speaking from their points of view. They want the people to have the power, and they’re pissed at all the other players who are trying to keep the people of Haiti from governing themselves.
There’s more than one other country trying to influence where the power to rule ends up. One country would basically be an invasion; what do we call it when more than one country, especially from opposing sides, tries to steer another country’s direction? We need to take a really hard look at how Haiti is being used as a proxy battleground between capitalist and communist nations.
The writer references the US’s Global Fragility Act of 2019, which can be found on Congress’s website. Look at this bit in the synopsis: “The State Department shall select priority countries and regions that are particularly at risk, and report to Congress 10-year plans for each. Each plan shall include information including descriptions of goals, plans for reaching such goals, and benchmarks for measuring progress.” Next, search for “Global Fragility Act” and “Haiti” to see if Haiti really is being targeted for US intervention. The State Department and Council on Foreign Relations say that, yes, the US is involving itself in Haitian politics, explicitly with the goal of being an investment (CFR) and “stabilized” according to standards laid out by the US (State Department).
Basically, we can insert Team America: World Police gifs as desired here. Ignoring the socialist bias entirely, we have to look at why Haiti is important to the US and Canada, how it’s being used as a proxy for the cold war between the East and West, and why we don’t think the Haitian people are capable of governing themselves. You’re welcome to ask your own questions about it, including why you want to dismiss the opinion as totally worthless right away.
