The Marxist nonsense, on top of a defrocked climate theology is going to make him look stupid in the long run.

One item of note - he comes from Latin America, where those countries have practiced a feudalism for centuries that locked their citizens into a perpetual serfdom, in extreme poverty. Their markets are dominated by the government or by the 50 top families. Competitors are arrested, or killed. The rich and the mafia rule, that is how it has been, that is how it will stay and that is why Latin America does not progress like the US. That is why they come to America in droves, they are tired of slavery.

In that light many have embraced the ridiculously flawed liberation theology - but they don’t understand market capitalism because they have only seen a bastardized version of it.

South America suffers from an authoritarian mindset that has religious origins. Someone must be in charge is the way they see and accept things. I was somewhat surprised to learn that Brazil, upon gaining its independence from Portugal, installed an Emperor. A republic came later, but after the second emperor. Latin America’s romance with dictators borders on a religious belief. It sure seems Latin politics and religion are very closely related.
