I still believe you gloss over the terror all the countries you list have caused to the population.
And it can not all be blamed on imperialism and "other states".
I come from one of the "middle ground" countries (Sweden) but much of the remaining state ownership and planned economy was wiped out in the 90s when we had an economical crisis.
(And if you want to nitpick again, the last paragraph was not a statement only an observation)
I gloss over the terror? It is not normal for anyone to start to go over the supposed terrorism (EDIT: terror) of nondescript countries when that topic has not even been brought up.[1] In turn there has not even been a chance for me to gloss it over.

Concerns such as these can apparently be set aside with the mere use of scare quotes. But it is perhaps understandable. Even politically high-ranking Swedish individuals that criticize imperialism can get bodily hurt, as history has shown.
[1] Unless one is supposed to do that as a matter of course when advocating a political ideology like capitalism or socialism.
