Posts should be memes

Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
Ok, there's a lot of claims being made here, and not just by you. I did a little research because I was bored, and just want to share.
The U.S. absolutely invaded Panama, The Dominican Republic, and President Taft sent troops to Nicaragua, which I guess is an invasion.
As far as media coverage goes, I found articles citing negative media coverage of U.S. intervention in Haiti and Panama, I will post the journals at the end of the paragraph.
I could not find any other media coverage save for local coverage by Hawaii, which I won't count. That does not mean it doesn't exist! Half of these things happened over 100 years ago now.
I think you will find plenty of negative media coverage on Iraq and Afghanistan, which I think is a better comparison.

Thanks for the smartest comment here ✌
You know for many cultures 100yo is not so old.
I would probably disagree with you on the last point, except for Julian Assange's work.
Anyway posting my comment was interesting, I can feel the effect of propaganda (not on you I think). I thought that in the age of the internet people would develop their critical thinking more. But people are as conditioned as in the last world wars. A manichean vision of the world.
Geopolitics is about complexity in my opinion.
