Cuba has been extremely successful despite the US fucking them over for 60 years. They’ve sent doctors across the world and even offered to help the US after hurricanes. They also sent anti-imperialist soldiers to African nations to fight for liberation on another continent. Nelson Mandela once famously openly praised Castro and his government for always being there for black South Africans in their struggle to end apartheid. He did so in response to some ignorant dumbass asking why he liked Castro or something like that.
The USSR and China were/are extremely successful. USSR was undermined at every turn by the US and generally western capital, plus some collaboration internally to make very bad economic decisions (moving towards private markets). China… well, look at them. Results speak for themselves.
The DPRK was very successful even post that whole US genociding them ordeal. Under Kim Il-Sung through the 50s until the 90s and post-USSR collapse (a major trading partner) they outpaced the US-propped South Korean state in basically everything. All of this after the US had leveled, effectively, the entire country and placed genocidal sanctions on them. For simply wanting to be a true democracy, btw. There was never any “actual” justification for war in Korea. Well, there was certainly justification for a war to remove the southern puppet(s) but not the war hero Kim who was and is beloved by his people, Chinese people respect him for his personal efforts to help liberate them from Imperial Japanese rule, and he’s still seen as a revolutionary hero today to people paying attention.
And killing or “disappearing” reactionaries is overstated by… reactionaries. But, for any amount that does happen, it’s generally justified because you can’t have an insurgent group of reactionaries, always foreign funded (by the US CIA…), actively undermining you. No government on earth can tolerate such shit. Go start a group with funding from China (good luck with this part) with the explicit goal of destroying whatever western hellscape you inhabit and see how long the government allows you to continue.

Yeah but we have little to no involvement now and those countries are worse.
What the hell did the US do to the USSR? 😂
Biden just increased sanctions on Cuba when he came into office.
But if you want a fucking list:

Does that look like “little to no involvement”?
