I feel bad for the arrested; even if their values were not pristine. Punishments for these kind of “offences” seem extremely harsh to me, being grown in a copyright-unaware climate.
Maybe not the actual government, but from saving in dollars to travelling we are very pro-american.
If we divide the world in pro-america, pro-europe, pro-rusia, pro-china, for us is Europe and America, and very far away the other options.

Of course there’s your standard disagreements between neighbors but, as far as I know, there’s no outright hostilities going on. Well, outside of some rebels and narco groups. Not like the 80s where the Soviets were stirring up trouble at least.
Brazil left despises the US after the coup. Bolivian right wants more US help to do another
Venezuela gov despises the US
Chilean left looks down on the US
Argentinian left is not US friendly, at most could be seen as transactional with the US. They really need help from world bank and imf
Bolivian left abhors the US, Bolivian right wants US support for a new coup
Paraguay is just doing its drug smuggling like they always do
Uruguay is in the process of signing a free trade agreement with China while US southern command is trying to avoid it from happening
Peruvian left is not friendly to US, Peruvian right has been working with US assistance against Peruvian left for a while to try and kneecap it
Ecuador is famously very anti-US and wouldn't deport Assange until he became excessibly annoying to deal with in the embassy
Colombia is a US puppet oligarchy. New gov is interesting, but it is still an oligarchy
Panama is a defacto neo-colony of the US
Puerto Rico is a literal colony of the US
Centro América with exception of México is a mishmash of neo-colonies literally using USD as their base currencies or detest the US in some form
So yeah...
