I'm talking about the geopolitical entities of the EU and East Asia, not ordinary Europeans and Asians. What's the evidence that the EU and East Asia are treating their semiperipheries the way the US has treated Latin America? Where are the death squads, the demolitions of democracies, the napalm raids, and the petro-fundamentalist wars? These are real, not rhetorical, questions. Critiquing Eurocapitalism by calling it America writ in euro just won't fly.
