Fun fact: the Chiquita Banana company tried to assassinate my Abuelo when he advocated for worker's unionization and rights in Honduras during the 20th century! So not only did they kill leaders, they didn't hesitate to kill anyone who even considered talking back! My Abuelo eventually immigrated to the US for asylum, and continued to advocate for unionization where they couldn't kill him as easily, haha.

one of the wildest parts of my childhood was going to the children's museum and playing in the part where you could pretend to be a labourer in a banana plantation only for my grandpa to start spouting war stories his father told him about the actual banana plantations

Colombian here! Because of the United fruit company, a lot of people here died just because they wanted basic human rights, in our History classes we called it "La masacre de las bananeras" the translation is something like "Banana Massacre"

"The nanners must flow" is an incredibly apt reference. Well done.

I get that this is supposed to be humorous but hearing about the Banana Republics is just sad and anger-inducing no matter how it was retold.

Dwight D. Eisenhower losing it at the word 'Commie' is actually historically accurate

In Colombia, there's a similar story. In 1928, workers of the banana plantations were protesting against the terrible working conditions. After weeks with no agreement due to the United Fruit Company refusing to negotiate, the conservative Colombian government sent the army to kill the protesting workers. They were compelled to work in the company's interests because they didn't want them to cut off the Colombian banana trade from major powers. This is now known as "La masacre de las bananeras" or the Banana Massacre. This is even referenced in One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez.
Just like during the Cold War, US officials in Colombia and United Fruit Co. representatives portrayed them as communist in telegrams sent to then Secretary of State Frank B. Kellogg
