I sometimes wonder if this wasn't the PURPOSE of America's "anti-Communism" in the Cold War era. As a result of our support for repressive fascist dictators, America made the people of the Third World think of Communism as something of an improvement ... That sentiment was then used to justify a "need" for greater support of "our" fascists, until, at the appropriate moment of optimum resistance ... voila! ...the rug is pulled out from under any possible ALTERNATIVE "utopia," leaving only the same old feudalist Capitalism now surrounded by a halo promising even GREATER "utopian" fantasies of --Marx now wearing pinstripes, carrying a laptop-- a utilitarian "workers' paradise." Likewise, I wonder if Castro --whom WE trained, before he "betrayed" (?) us-- wasn't the first in a long succession of bogus "Satans" (Noriega, Saddam, etc) secretly on the CIA payroll, somehow never --despite our government's best military actions OR covert op-- ever successfully "overthrown" -- because they're far more useful to us IN POWER, as "Goldstein" types (see Orwell's "1984"), conveniently justifying American foreign policy that would otherwise be all too clearly seen as colonial-imperialist, international finance profit-oriented, and as FASCIST in nature. (Behind Castro stood the SOVIET "enemy," but since the fall of Communism, notice the shift of ideology in a Noriega or a Saddam. So actually, by this logic, it wouldn't be surprising if the "Free" World INVENTED and secretly funded "Communism," the ultimate "Goldstein" in a Hegelian puppet-show ... But I guess that's not new "conspiracy theory," noting how the creators of "Capitalism" in Britain's Royal Society in the 18th Century covertly supported the first "Socialists" in rival would-be empire France ...For CLIENT states of Capitalism, an only-theoretical "Communist" social order certainly makes for better slaves domestically, even more deluded about who their real masters are -- i.e., their masters' ULTIMATE Masters ...) What if the exorbitant profits of CRIME so *outpaced* the profits from LAWFUL activity that, after a few decades, they were sufficient to finance a slow "hostile takeover" of all legitimate economic institutions, particularly those operating on a "global" scale, like the multinationals and their "political administrators," the NGOs of the <ha> "NWO"? When they SUCCEEDED in this --a global "coup" by the Mafia-- how could we TELL? Seems to me, we'd be presented with conditions such as exist NOW all around us ...
