You got me there.

Still, they can't coup all of us at once (and frankly I don't think they're competent enough to do what they did in '75 to anyone right now). Our governments really *should* be extricating the American Empire from our infrastructure wherever we can, especially now.

And to re-emphasize, I'm no fan of "what can we do"-ism from Americans. I'm just saying that our countries, as ostensible allies, *will* need to grow a spine at some point before the empire drags us down with them. Fear shouldn't keep us in line forever.

They didn’t have to be competent. They just told the Governor-General, who was a CIA contractor, “coup ‘em”.
