They want you to think what’s happening in Venezuela is about “authoritarianism”. It’s not.

It’s about who ultimately controls more than $14 trillion in mineral resources - a national government or Western globalist bankster elites?

It’s about which geopolitical bloc will gain access and influence over these resources - the Western global financial empire or the emerging BRICS trading system?

What’s happening in Venezuela is part of a broader historical struggle between national movements and a system that condemns them to perpetual underdevelopment as cheap exporters to Western oligarch cartels like Blackrock and ExxonMobil.

“Democracy” and “authoritarianism” are slogans that Western gangsters use as cudgels whenever their material interests are threatened.

If you’re buying what Elon Musk is selling, you might as well believe in Santa Claus.

    This has nothing to do with the US access to the minerals. A democratic government can do business with whomever they want, even if it continues to be China. Maduro doesn’t want to let go of power. The people of Venezuela deserve to have their votes counted, and their opinions heard.
