lil shitty - 08 - latin american mercenary lyrics

[intro]
parenti on west taking from the third world and its methods
“if you want to understand those years after the russian revolution, just look at what’s going on in nicaragua invasion, either by directly with troops from your own country or by using surrogate troops. and they use the white armies and the white generals. um the white guard armies embargoes isolation, withholding food supplies, sabotage, encirclement, refusing diplomatic recognition. these are, these are the mеthods that are used and thesе are the methods, time honored methods that are being used right now by reagan against another revolutionary government which is nicaragua.”

[verse]
cuz when they tell you there is no money for schools, health care, or nothin
they too busy spending that money supporting the gun runnin’
commie hunting, under the guise of protecting free market consumption
they will spit in your face and spend your tax money on confrontin’
anyone threatening the profits of their special someones
this ain’t some conundrum its f+cking capitalism and exploitation

reagan pulled together the cons, militarists, and christian right
evangelical nihilists falwell, robertson, even john price

freedom fighters reagan said the contras were in the tradition
fulfilling their dreams and american corporate ambitions
create a sovereign debt crisis to distract from stagflation
f+ck it devalue their currency and destroy any latin american nation
rip down arbenz in 54, allende in 73 or any leftist by relation, over 40 coups but don’t just listen to me
it’s all enshrined in history, but not the school books of americans
that’s just white eurocentric propaganda, let’s check again

we indiscriminately dropped herbicide known as glyphosate
we poisoned their crops and ruined all the peasants lake
all for not yielding to united fruit and the bank known as chase
jp morgan and standard oil ripping through the earth and displaced

indigenous off their land, and populate it full of coca plants
so now reagan can blame the f+cking narco man, (f+ck that!)
this was no normal man, death squads were his formal plan
led by monsters in oliver north and elliot abrams clan

im telling it as plain i can, these were christians that were slaughtered
for believing in the theology of liberation, men, women, sons and daughters
hundreds of thousands caught up, mutilated, murdered, so public goods could be bought up
their education, pensions, transportation, and all sort of
things that society values things they had built in order to flourish
unless you a piece of sh+t conservative right wing for profit corporate marauder

the story is always the same, first come the missionaries followed by the commerce
then comes the investment which spells far worse
because next comes to war if you challenge it and law backs it up
they call this economically rational, while i call it f+cked up!!!

cuz when we say democracy matters we want to destroy someone’s sovereignty
to export casey’s ‘enterprise’ of arms, death, and poverty
funding anti+communist insurgencies, became the latest emergency
but it was unpopular so they urgently created the office of public diplomacy
and even frank wohl an anti communist student and marine rotc
gets discredited for disclosing the contras atrocities

operation just cause, in panama had 442 bombs dropped on cities
in 12 hours, k!lling thousands of noncombatants innocently
its the same tactics used in the gulf war
to bring terror and fear to engulf more land and procure
manufactured consent for anti+communism to be so sure
there is no challenge to marketing capitalisms hegemonic brochure
but just remember this, america are the terrorists, to give you closure

[outro]
parenti on west taking from the third world and its methods
“that expropriation of the third world has been going on for 400 years brings us to another revelation
namely that the third world is not poor. you don’t go to poor countries to make money
there are very few poor countries in this world. most countries are rich. the philippines are rich
brazil is rich. mexico is rich. chile is rich. only the people are poor
but there’s billions to be made there to be carved out and be taken. there’s been billions for 400 years
the capitalist european and north american powers have carved out and taken the timber, the flax
the hemp, the cocoa, the rum, the tin, the copper, the iron, the rubber, the box side, the slaves
and the cheap labor they have taken out of these countries. these countries are not underdeveloped
they’re overexploited”
