Neocolonialism requires a pseudo-sovereign oppressive regime to be the executor of colonial violence.
An egalitarian nation would be more capable at resisting the west, and therefore neocolonial parties sabotage egalitarian regimes and replace them with oppressive regimes, which are weaker and more dependent on neocolonial support to suppress their populations.
Consider the EU’s “everything but arms” tax scheme, where neocolonial corporations can get a tax benefit if they get their goods from destabilized African nations except when it would build up a weapons industry that could help empower nations to throw off the neocolonial yoke.
I’m sorry, but that’s simply not true about repression being a prerequisite. It just isn’t.
Ask Allende or Aristide or Zelaya or Morsi or countless other former leaders, what happens when you don’t arm the people and lead with an iron fist. Fascists will just kill you and them.
Stop blaming the victims.
Oh, yeah, I see how you could read that differently from what I intended.
I meant that neocolonialism requires oppressive regimes in the same way it requires oil and slave labor. It depends on them, it consumes them, and therefore it engages in proactive measures to acquire them.
Your nation being an oppressive regime is not a prerequisite for your nation to become the victim of neocolonialism.
