If you had to choose between not voting, receiving no food supply while starving, and voting for maduro and staving off starvation for another week, which would you choose?

Maduro had a meltdown after being confronted with reality in Venezuela. This guy is truly a historical moron. https://twitter.com/brianstelter/status/1100219541001568256 -Journalists detained for 3 hours -They took the footage, and wouldn't give it back -Univision made the call to the State Department, which led to the tweet

The number of rabid leftwing Maduro apologists in this thread says a lot about the state of SA. Please consign yourselves to the same circle of hell as the Stalinist bootlickers and Kim Jong Un fanboys. Wrap yourself in a hammer and sickle and there will always be a mob of dumb fucks at your beck and call

I don't think that ever needs to be stated, just assumed. So any updates on the journalists yet like what questions were asked or is it still a mystery.

Acebuckeye13 posted:I really want to know what you were hoping to accomplish with this post. bad news, friend. the Abrams' of the world are not some unique monster. there is a potent strain of thought, born of the indolence that comes with stolen wealth, that holds that the right and proper punishment for any who dare suggest their humanity is equal to their betters is to be used to demonstrate the maximum extent of their cruelty. to serve as a message for the rest of the animals that think they are people, that this is what will happen to you if you don't do what you're told. Elliot Abrams, comforting though the thought might be, is not some unique locus of evil. you slap our buddy into his position and he'll just as gleefully order the remains be hung from trees to demonstrate to all the world the cost of intransigence. because knowing that We are better than Them is the only thing he really believes in, and when people disagree the only way to prove them wrong is in pain. sure am glad the opposition says "how high" when these people say "jump," huh!

the best part is, the second they're challenged, they start ranting about marxism and race treachery. they cannot imagine a world where setting a black guy on fire for being uppity, or working your way through the indigenous population with home improvement equipment, is considered the wrong thing to do, without some nefarious plot to undermine society being behind it. what noble allies you have mustered, my liberal interventionist friends. don't you feel lucky, that these people join you, in saying that human rights demand you put Venezuela in the hands of Elliot Abrams. don't you feel confident, that they will do what is right in the months to come.

Jorge Ramos and his team of five journalists were deported early this morning after spending the evening in Miraflores Palace last night, some of it against their will. As pointed out earlier in the thread, Ramos was there to interview Maduro. The story so far is that Ramos asked Maduro a question(s) that he did not like, so Maduro ordered Ramos and his team detained and their equipment confiscated. Ramos said that Maduro snapped when he showed him "a video of some young people eating out of a garbage truck". Ramos said that at that point Maduro "tried to cover up the iPad" on which Ramos was showing him the video, and that Maduro declared the interview to be over. Minister of Communication Jorge Rodriguez then allegedly came into the room and said that they hadn't authorized the interview, and at that moment the journalists were seized. Ramos was asked how Maduro's demeanor changed throughout the interview, and he responded by saying that Maduro started off by talking about how wonderful life is in Venezuela (as we've seen him do in other interviews), but that when he was shown the video "that's when he couldn't take it anymore". Univision has published the video that Ramos showed Maduro. The video does in fact show a group of people eating trash out of a moving garbage truck in Caracas, not far away the from Miraflores Palace according to Ramos. Here's the video along with my translation: https://twitter.com/UnivisionNews/status/1100266941783126017 quote:Ramos: So, tell me something: you're looking for food in the trash?
