No, but it would give the paramilitaries a chance to beat more people up.

Borneo Jimmy posted:Ah the trusty "They're guerilla collaborators!" canard that Colombia uses whenever somebody dares to criticize it's human rights abuses, or anybody they deem "subversive". Of course you also made the ridiculous claim that right-wing paramilitaries don't exist anymore so its fascinating to come across someone who genuine believes in the transparent propaganda of a bunch of narco-terrorists. Y'know, it's really sad that I hope you're just a troll because if you're serious then you're a completely reprehensible human being.

I'm glad Venezuela kicked these assholes out. Anyone mourning the Chavistas because of the "global left" needs to actually learn something about them.

Ardennes posted:Either way they (the populist right) have a more active voice in the government, and even if the Tea Party movement itself disappeared, it has had long lasting influence on the GOP. Trump may very well win the nomination in part because of it, something that wouldn't have happened 20 years ago. Trump getting the nomination doesn't necessarily mean a thing. Mondale got the Dem nod in '84 and look how that turned out.

Labradoodle posted:Where no one will buy from you because they won't be able to afford your prices even if you sold them at face value. Even if you sold your beers at $1 buck a pop that'd still be a little bit over a tenth of a Venezuelan's monthly wage. For example, I just had a beer at a place near my home and when the bill came I was surprised to find it cost Bs500 (freaking Zulia beers, I take back what I said earlier), which is approximately 1/20th of a monthly wage. I could've had a cheaper beer at like Bs200-300 but I didn't think it'd be that expensive. That's fine, I can just trade the beer for cheap gas

Bob le Moche posted:The other thing that you folks need to understand about all these evil "crazy" brown/oriental dictators that your media keeps warning you about, is that they only get to be where they are in the first place, and to be able to maintain a strong enough base of popular support for their "authoritarian" policies, because they are seen as the only line of defense against foreign imperialism and the brutal pressures of international capitalism. If you want the "strongmen" to go away, you should work towards making your own government stop systematically harassing/threatening/attacking every country that ever questions its hegemony, and allow the people of the world to have some self-determination without policing the outcome. You aren't even reading this thread are you?

CAPS LOCK BROKEN posted:Before he was arrested people in this thread treated him like another one of maduro's greasy goons. After his arrest the thread immediately shifted to him being a victim of maduro's paranoid purges, and now that it was outed that the arrested general was a coup plotter who met with the US the narrative is back to him being a goon. These are not mutually exclusive positions just FYI. Extrajudicial murder/imprisonment is a bad thing for everyone even if it happens to scumbags.
