This is the most obscene lie ever sold as history. America didn’t promote freedom. It monopolized the right to define it and then systematically destroyed every attempt at real freedom that didn’t serve American interests. Whenever a nation tried to use its own resources for its own people, it was called a threat to “freedom.” Iran nationalized its oil to keep the wealth at home … destroyed. Guatemala passed land reform so peasants could eat instead of starving for United Fruit … coup. Chile voted for democratic socialism to reduce crushing inequality …overthrown and replaced with a regime that tortured equality out of existence. The pattern was never accidental. It was the operating system … Crush any model of sovereignty or economic justice that might succeed without American permission. Post-colonial countries dreaming of genuine independence were met with sabotage, rigged “aid,” and structural adjustment programs that forced them to sell everything cheap while inequality exploded. The equality abroad? The same empire that preached it built a global hierarchy where the only equality was the equal right of every other nation to be poor, indebted, and dependent. It was never liberation. It was the violent enforcement of a single acceptable version of “freedom” the freedom of capital to flow one way while sovereignty flowed the other. 250 years of this hypocrisy created the exact world of resentment, instability, and broken societies it now pretends to fix. And from what I see the world is done pretending the preacher was ever anything but the biggest hypocrite in the room.

For nearly 250 years, America promoted freedom and equality abroad, even when it failed to live up to those ideals itself—not anymore. @anneapplebaum argued in The Atlantic’s “Unfinished Revolution” issue last year. theatln.tc/9Mv6U5TW
