To be fair mate, you’ve missed the bit about the many US backed murder squads in places like Guatemala, El Salvador and Chile who do their best to destroy those socialist revolutions and kill many more thousands of people.
Ok even without the mighty US and it’s ****ing inept military, give me one example where a socialist revolution has been a success in the long run.
 
No, one where the Us hasn’t interfered at all, one that has been successful in the long run, c’mon Mate surely you must have one tucked away in the socialist revolutionary handbook of success.

But that’s what I’m saying Turkish. A socialist government hasn’t been allowed to happen and flourish because the US wouldn’t allow it on its doorstep......

Ok, let’s go further afield, outside the USA’s doorstep then, surely there must be at least one, even a little one, or shock horror have all socialist revolutions worldwide failed cause Uncle Sam got pissed.
Or maybe it’s because socialism only works till it runs out of other people’s money, or maybe even because it’s just a bad idea.
 
You’ve asked me for one.....I gave you one. Are you now asking for two ?
Now now mate, you said chile was doing fine till Uncle Sam allegedly interfered, so I’ve asked for an example of a socialist revolution that has succeeded, one that has had no outside interference from Uncle Sam, or old uncle Fidel, one that is still going strong.
