    Dear American libs: Think about what you’ve been saying about Russians and please start saying all of those about yourselves. Think about how much you wished every Russian to suffer and it’s only fair to wish the exact same amount for yourself.

    Remember how little you were willing to distinguish between the people and the government and I better not see you give any more leeway to your own country.

    I don’t want to hear any “but i don’t support it” bullshit out of you after the vitriol you spewed about the Russian ethnicity and culture using the Ukraine war as your cover while getting all high and mighty about not being racist. You deserve as much empathy and sympathy as you give to others.

    And don’t forget to carry seeds in your pockets so useful things grow out of you when you die :)

      Propaganda is a hell of a drug. Nearly half of the country is being brainwashed by fascist propaganda. Your cho of word is spot on. It is truly insanity.

    Please report any pro-US-empire comments so we can ban them ASAP.

    We aren’t going to let people come into this space and justify US crimes like kidnapping heads of state, murdering innocent people, and starting wars based on lies.

      Can we please keep the respectful ones so we have a chance to dispel their beliefs? There is overwhelming propaganda against Venezuela that is easy to disprove, but most of their spaces ban us (example: reddit). I wish we have a chance to argue our perspective.

        The groupthink on forums is ridiculous, and you don’t need to be a capitalist nor anticapitalist to recognize that. I, too, hope that we can have healthy discussions of starkly different views.

    Maduro might be an idiot, but the press needs to be vigilant here.

    “What right does the US have to do this?”

    “So other countries can do this to the US for similar reasons and not expect repercussions?”

        They don’t want to, they could do that easily.
        He is not liked as it is by ukrainians, and he would be replaced by the fascist Zalushny.
        Last year Zelenski gave medals to troops and Russia waited until he left to strike the building.
        They know exactly where he is and when.

    Ah the honorable BBC.
    Let’s also give recognition to the regime press doing their part with fake news trying to create the illusion the country is revolting and the government has fled:

    https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/venezuela-vice-president-rodriguez-russia-four-sources-say-2026-01-03/

    Their attempt FAILED. No army or popular support, not enough traitors.
    Tone-deaf americans wishful thinking.
    As usual there is no follow up, no long term plan or vision.

    The US will not ‘run the country’ just bcs they kidnapped 2 people.
    They failed in Iran and other places with their vulgar murders of leaders, simply hoping the locals would do the work for them.
    Never do they learn from their mistakes.
    Thoughtless violence as the last resort to save their dying empire is all they have.
    It invariably backfires.

    They only have shown the world nothing is too low for them and exposed what countries are vassals and hypocrites not even condemning these acts. Or even applauding them, like the regimes of Argentina, Equador, Italy and ukraine

      If anything positive might come out of such a fucked-up level of open terrorism. I hope that it not only leads to the resolve of the people of Venezuelan people standing firm. And all of Central and South American nations to unite in mutual defense. Might not lead to a wave of jumping all-in on socialism/communism, but they all have suffered under the boot of the USA. Any nation that keeps placing USA interests above their own sovereignty only keeps things like this happening.

      The right-wing news outlets are already pushing for Cuba to be next. Literally nations that their talking points about “suffering under communist dictatorships” only happen because the USA is allowed to control how other nations can/can’t trade with them. And any USA citizen and politician that can’t wake the fuck up continue to have the blood of all other nations on our hands. This isn’t just about Venezuela, it is also a massive push to further keep attention away from the active genocide that never stopped in Palestine.

      Do you feel a part of the earth we all share must turn to ash before there is solidarity amongst the working class of both our nation states?

        Yes, the working class of a settler colony that has benefitted from the exploitation of the rest of the world should NOT be given the same sympathy as the working class of the exploited countries. Our anger towards the US is completely justified
