    Maduro also kidnapped Venezuela in a clearly stolen election. Venezuelans are parting in Mimami so it’s not so black and white. I just hope they can get soon an election and people there can really choose… but we know it won’t be like this…

    I could say more, but I have a visa and they are sending people to jail or worse if you’d disagree with the American government, so I can’t say anything that can be interpreted wrong.

      According to the country that invaded Venezuela?

      Venezuelans are parting in Mimami so it’s not so black and white

      Peak murica, what about actual Venezuelans in Venezuela?

        My family in Venezuela is also very happy, I think peak American is how you don’t understand us in South America and why we hate left leaning politics the way they destroyed our countries.

          Sure, they do.

          It’s not only countries in South America that have experienced US regime change, people also celebrated and collaborated with them here and I am sure our diaspora did in the US.

      There cannot be a fair election in Venezuela until the US sanctions are completely eliminated.

      We shouldn’t invade countries for oil, regardless of who runs the country. Stop defending imperialism.

      a clearly stolen election

      Like, Bush 2000 stolen or Nayib Bukele 2024 stolen?

      I have a visa and they are sending people to jail or worse if you’d disagree with the American government

      Have you tried voting your way to freedom?

          So your PR for the trump administration here is because you think it will keep you out of the camps?

                Saying the Venezuelan people are hopeful is not defending the attack. Being against Maduro is not defending the attack, but Maduro needed to go urgently. Look the histories of torture in Venezuela, there is a reason why Venezuelan people are so happy even with this.

                  So now that trump is in charge like you want, will you be returning to your “liberated” homeland?
