It's nice you finally learned some of the US and Latin American history many of us have known for decades. If you are looking for an indicting example of US intervention in Latin America, the overthrow of Goulart is not the best choice. The Brazilian military declined the US offer of assistance in that case. I suggest you look to Chile in 1973, the Platt period in Cuba, or Central America in the 1980s. I always encourage Americans to learn about the history of their nation's actions abroad, particularly in Latin America. None of that, of course, explains why you would then stump for empire by Russia or become so angry when people object to it. Your explanation amounts to "he did it first."
I suggest you look up the word bullying in the dictionary. It does not cover being confronted with arguments and information you find inconvenient.
You are doing a very poor job of justifying Russian policy in the Ukraine. Bureaucratic Authoritarianism in Latin America in the mid-20th century is hardly an excuse for warmongering in Eastern Europe today. Your inability to muster any discussion or evidence about the subject matter says worlds about the strength of your cause.
