A fascist America means cold war era coup attempts in Latin countries are back

I mean, it's not like Milei, Bolsonaro or the Nobel Prize laureate aren't heavily supported by the US. "Cold war coups" never really stopped in Latin American countries

Prepare for it to esculate.

At least if we still had a democracy, it'd be easier to both spread the word and engage in meaningful protest to stop or severely hinder it domestically.

We don't get that now. Nearly no mainstream media outlet has made mention of Venezuela until a Dem asked about it this week, and even so it ain't getting the coverage it needs.

How did the "democracy" prevent all the Cold War shit? Millions of murdered in Vietnam, Korea, Laos, Cambodia, Cuba, Chile, Brazil, Argentina, Iraq... US warmongering is bipartisan and kills millions regardless

Also, one of the main reasons the Vietnam war ended was mass protests against it.

The war had become extremely unpopular in the USA.

Millions of innocents were murdered regardless, I don't see your point.
