Me watching the US post-WW2 be dragged into colonial nonsense by the French and British erasing our genuine anti-colonial efforts and slowly solidifying a gruesome neocolonial culture in our institutions and foreign policy

I mean, not to erase our actual colonial past, or that our position in Latin America was always much less anti-colonial.

Yeah, pretty much. It's always an amalgam, it's never simple or static.
