Colombia, Peru, Brazil and Argentina all went through this.
What's with latin america and it's relation with extreme alt-right parties? You'd think a continent so ravaged by capitalism & imperialism they would opt for left-wing parties?
The legacy of US interventionism kneecapping any left-wing movements and the legacy of colonialism, I'd imagine. I believe most of the upper class in those countries are descendants of former colonial overlords.
Anyone remotely left wing was violently repressed while right wingers were encouraged. Not to mention the US Confederate cope cities and Nazi rat lines pumping the worst kind of people into the continent
