        “Vuvuzela communist hell hole” 😭💀

        All of Venezuela’s policies since Hugo Chavez would be considered at most center-left in most of Europe. Venezuela is at most a social-democratic country with a lot of populism.

        And you talk about China when saying “communism” doesn’t work? Bro, China never said it was communist first of all, and China isn’t working? Are you insane? China is by far the country with the biggest increase in quality of life and purchasing power in the world. Have you even seen a Chinese city nowadays?

        When China sucks it’s communist, but when it’s the fastest growing, strongest economy in the world it’s capitalist?

        And CUBA? Bro a country that has been basically under economic siege for the past 60 years and STILL has better health outcomes than the US?? The country with the most sustainable economy in the planet? The country that just last year passed democratically the most progressive constitution in the history of humanity??

        You are a brainwashed liberal, like so many of the shitheads I’ve met that left Venezuela. You have 0 material analysis, it’s all vibes and ideology and parroting US think tank talking points. You don’t understand the reality of your own fucking country AT ALL.

          As long as Venezuelans keep blaming the US for Venezuela’s problems instead of looking inward, especially to their own corrupt government, things won’t get better for them.

          Using the US as an external enemy is great for holding onto power but it doesn’t improve people’s lives. Transparency, democracy and accountability improve people’s lives. These are things most of Europe have and Venezuela does not. Venezuela has vastly different policies from center-left European countries and I’d know because I live in one.

          You don’t have to defend China or Cuba because I don’t want to attack them. I wish Venezuela would be like China or Cuba. At least my family wouldn’t go without power, starve or die needlessly.

          Maduro has to go, and chavistas need to stop blaming everyone but the government for their problems. But I suspect even after everyone has left and only chavistas remain, they’ll still blame someone else. Don’t encourage them.

      Yeah, after all, this softening of oil sanctions in an environment where the oil revenue is flowing into state coffins it’ll be refreshing to see pensions and salaries adjusted beyond the current $5/month.
