    OK, that’s as good an answer as any.

    Salvador Allende got couped three years after his election. Are there any ways you can think to prevent a foreign power from undermining future hypothetical socialist governments that wouldn’t be authoritarian?

        Yea, because they just gave up and certainly didn’t try to defend themswlf, sadly even a gun is of no use as poor third world country facing the world power, I can’t see a way to prevent that.

          Cuba is the most notable example of the many countries that have proven this wrong.

          If you have popular support and guns, the options for the U.S. are either mass, indiscriminate slaughter or leaving. We usually get tired of the mass, indiscriminate slaughter after a few years.
