Holy gently caress. if there is still income inequality in Venezuela, and there are still rich people in Venezuela, and the social dynamics are still such that the rich people get to afford to eat how is the hardship in Venezuela being caused by socialism and/or the government?

well wait a minute, if you agree that Venezuelan heads-of-state throughout the history of the nation have failed to improve agricultural output such that there wouldn't be food shortages, etc., doesn't it seem like there's a particular double-standard at play here for holding Maduro responsible to the extent that he should be removed for merely failing to vault the same bar that everybody else? I mean, at the very least that merely puts him in the same category as "a bit poo poo", and insofar as I'm not up to scratch on my pre-21st century Venezuelan political history, I'm pretty sure the so-called international community didn't take as much issue with... Rafael Caldera.

The US doing absolutely nothing with regards Venezuela would be the best thing to have ever happened to the country. They currently are not doing that. hope this helps!

Ecuador have the Good protesters that are trying to kick out Lenin Moreno for being a neolib sell-out There were also Good protests in Honduras (at least as of June) against the right-wing government there that's been in power since 2009 when Manuel Zelaya (who wasn't even that left-wing) was deposed by security forces It was Nicaragua that had to beat back a US-backed attempted coup of their Sandinista-party President Daniel Ortega And then finally we also have right-wing protests in Bolivia trying to stir-up poo poo to remove left-wing President Evo Morales from power just as the country is about to head into another election that about right?

Atrocious Joe posted:The US did pass sanction on Nicaragua not long after using the protests as justification, included Nicaragua as part of the "Troika of Tyranny," and had funded many of the NGOs that were involved in the protests. yup https://thegrayzone.com/2018/07/30/...-and-sanctions/ quote:A detailed study of the death toll that has been recorded in Nicaragua since a violent campaign to remove President Daniel Ortega and his Sandinista government shows that at least as many Sandinista supporters were killed as opposition members. The study, “Monopolizing Death,” demonstrates how partisan local NGOs conflated all deaths that occurred since April, including accidents and the murders of Sandinistas, with killings by government forces. Washington has seized on the bogus death count to drive the case for sanctions and intensify pressure for regime change.
