United States Interference with the Democratic Process in Other Countries
The next time you get pissed at the alleged "Russian Interference" in U.S. elections, keep in mind the dozens and dozens of time the United States has blatantly interfered with the democratic process in other countries. Wikipedia offers synopses of many of these U.S. transgressions. Here's the opening paragraph:
Since the 19th century, the United States government has participated and interfered, both overtly and covertly, in the replacement of many foreign governments. In the latter half of the 19th century, the U.S. government initiated actions for regime change mainly in Latin America and the southwest Pacific, including the Spanish–American and Philippine–American wars. At the onset of the 20th century, the United States shaped or installed governments in many countries around the world, including neighbors Hawaii, Panama, Honduras, Nicaragua, Mexico, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic.
And here's yet another Wikipedia article with more information about the U.S. interfering in the elections of other countries.
Wikipedia has become severely compromised on numerous topics (see the interview below, Glenn Greenwald interviewing Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger), but these particular pages still seem largely intact.
