AMLO is NOT a revolutionary, nor any kind of leftist. He is not even a limited reformer as defined by the likes of a very corrupt and weak Chavez. What he is, is an ass kisser of Trump and like minded plutocrats.

He is a strikebreaker of Mexican workers who went on strike in support of American workers whose unions show no appreciation and even less support when they were set upon by troops sent by AMLO to break their strike.

AMLO pledged to reform the police by building a new non-politicized police force of 100,000. He did this by transferring 100,000 of previously politicized by the American Pentagon into this new militia.

AMLO takes his marching orders from Carlos Slim, one of the richest billionaires on the planet and part owner of the New York Times.

He has been a Pandemic denier from the start and has done next to nothing to prepare and protect his country.

Instead of rolling out a program to help a very poor working class with no existing safety net, he has implemented an austerity program and forced workers to work irrespective of the Pandemic. He is proceeding on the privatization of the National Oil industry program previously planned by his conservative predecessors whose respective political power was not sufficient to fully implement. This is in spite of running on the pledge that the Oil industry would remain in state hands. He has also abandoned any program and investment in renewable energy.

This propaganda that Mexican plutocrats wish to overthrow him is an outright lie designed to win him support and cover from both gullible people both in and outside Mexico to pursue his neoliberal austerity program. Mexico is even more a banana republic then the US. Elections there, make American rigging and fixing of elections look amateur. Outright bribery of voters is common. When bribery fails, political assassination is commonly used to get the right people in office and of course the wrong people into the ground. It is a colony of the US. There is a disgusting Walmart one mile away from some of the most ancient and beautiful Pyramids on Earth at Teotihuacan.

I am very disappointed with Max because generally on foreign issues he has been a useful and caring idiot, (especially with regards to Palestinians), which most American liberals show no interest in, much less concern. The problem with these liberals is that it is small and incestuous self serving community who are blind to each other's faults and overly respectful to each other's rice bowl. I hope Max is merely ignorant of the facts on the ground. But the damage that sick reports like this one does is incalculable. It is the worst form of Stalinism. A sick perversion of Internationalism, where petty bourgeois agreed to support each other in their reactionary efforts to take advantage of their respective working classes. No one has the right to screw their own country!
