The US has a history of funding and encouraging government overthrows for our own political gain. The original commenter was being sarcastic, implying that these protests are somehow being funded or encouraged by the United States, secretly. I have no where near enough information to form an opinion, but what do you think?

I wish I could; I wish we would. His original comment was about CIA backing-- the CIA doesn't give money to help actual people, just financial and political interests. This is about the only way our government would get involved.

I've read your other comments, but can you tell us more about what motivated this, and what you would like to see happen in the end? I think a lot of us just really have no idea what's happening. We see reports of violence, but we don't know exactly what's going on or why. Also, do you have any idea how many protesters have been injured or killed at this point? Best of luck to you, and I hope you can stay safe.

Did the government give any reason for the media blockade? Even if it's bullshit, did they say anything at all to justify it? It's just scary as hell when governments do that; it feels like they're just pulling the curtains around their country so they can kill their own people.
