Another fucking Bolivarian communist?🙄 No, but no surprise when right-wing Americans keep calling any Latin America politician left of centre-right Bolivarian. |

There's a clear global trend in latin america right now. With of course cultural differences that mean different kinds of left wing candidates being elected, but still...
If Boric wins it in Chile and Lula makes is long awaited political comeback, the continent will appear quite leftie.

Another fucking Bolivarian communist?🙄 She is the wife of Zelaya, who tried indeed to push H. into ALBA (Cuba, Venezuela aso.). |

I mean one of Castro's main pledges is to invite the UN in to help combat corruption - hardly the actions of a despot ...

Cortizo in Panama is Centre-left and I don’t think that any sane person is going to call him a Bolivarian or a communist (I also don’t think that AMLO and Lula are Boliverian or Communist) |

Blimey. I think they did, plus a lot of other names as well. |

And it's membership of the Sao Paolo Forum, which of course has the Communist Party of Cuba, the ruling party of Venezuela and the Sandinistas in it. It is most definitely in that milleu. |
