11. Day-um! Complaining about that place, whatever it's called now, is anti-American?

So, the American way is to teach torture and how to quash not just rebellion but free speech? And prop up dictators?

Well, the truth of it is that we did that for a few hundred years. In fact the Monroe Doctrine was largely to keep those sneaky Europeans out of our Caribbean slave trade and let us do what we wanted to with Mexico and Central America. It ended with calling some places banana republics for a reason. Patriots saving the world for United Fruit.

But this is something to be proud of? To brag about?

It to be ashamed of.
