It’s United fruit company. Created railroads, port, and other infra in Central American countries for plundering them. Owning the entire supply chain.

Easy to draw comparison to what East India Company did in India but on the smaller scale. Not killing millions of people, but still very brutal for any human being. I see them and see Hitler and can’t differentiate between them.

Still can see how people think United fruit company and East India Company were the force of good. They did good for those countries they were plundering.

This video also shows the side where we see how US imperialism works. How they destabilize the country. Quite an eye-opener for someone who grew up to see the USA as a sort-of force of good and democracy.
