This isn’t in reference to military intervention, or proposed military intervention, but in response to a US statement (now, after a week for Maduro’s government to substantiate its claims of victory and still having nothing) that the opposition’s evidence that they won the election instead of Maduro is credible.
That’s the level of Yankee interference here.
You’ll notice they include the EU, which is not a military organization, as one of the meddlers as well.
“Do you think them helpless peasants that require the intervention of big brother USA whenever there is trouble?”
I interpreted the “intevention” to mean military intervention. I’m not sure what other kind of intervention would be worth commenting on in the case of “trouble”.
I don’t agree with your interpretation. It still seems to me that the comment I was responding to (which isn’t in this screenshot) was talking about military intervention. We don’t need to argue about it though, we could just go and ask the person who wrote the comment what they meant. But I doubt either of us will.
Regardless, I agree with the tankie, much as it pains me to admit. Who the fuck are the US and the EU to poke their noses into the business of other sovereign nations?

I didn’t realize sovereignty meant no one can ever criticize you for anything, especially not blatantly faking an election after agreeing to have free and fair elections in exchange for access to US markets. I’ll have to inform a number of anti-US countries posthaste.
Who are the US and Europe to have an opinion on free and fair elections? We share the same planet. If my neighbor strangles his wife to keep custody of the kids I’m going to have something to say about it.
I don’t follow. What does that have to do with sovereign nations minding their own business?

Why? In Western democracies, police forces and the courts are the people who deal with murder. What would you say? What makes you think anyone would care about what you have to say? Why wouldn’t you mind your own business?

The last comment says:

The ‘intervention’ here is taking any sort of stance that isn’t licking Maduro’s boots.

This doesn’t make sense. By definition, nobody has the power to prevent a sovereign nation from criticising another and the US is a sovereign nation.
You didn’t address my question.
