        If Maduro’s electoral arm could release the results of the elections none of this would happen as it’s I’m democratic countries, so I’m not sure about how a coup could restore anything if the government went into power executing fraud on the polls and a de facto coup d’etat denying Venezuelans of their real representation.

      US do bad thing so places US did bad thing to are always right and shut up.

      This is why using the trench guns anyways after the germans asked the US nicely to stop means nobody from America is allowed to think that Hitler Fella might not have risen to power in the most legitimate way.

        “Critical support for dictatorship! Socialist praxis is when you strip the proletariat of their power, and the more power you strip from them, the more socialist it is!”

        I understand hating the US. But Jesus. That doesn’t (or at least shouldn’t) mean one has to simp for every anti-US regime out there.

      Yeah forgive me for not trusting a damn thing the US and US media says.

      Regardless of what happened the US is pumping money into destabilizing Venezuela. It will have done whatever the outcome.

      Venezuela just had an election where an incumbent dictator who is supremely unpopular, won with a ‘thin’ margin. Many organizations and foreign leaders are casting doubt on the authenticity of the election. The incumbent dictator is named in this meme.

        …won with a ‘thin’ margin.

        And exit polling that was wildly different, showing a landslide for the opposition.

          The dictatorial regime is ignoring the results of the election. I see how the meme is a bit ambiguous; I posted it just before going to sleep.

          There have been some memes here calling the official result correct. People mostly ignored them, but the OP clearly didn’t.

          I think he’s trying to say that some of us online are fascists who are ignoring what happened like we don’t care.

          ?

          That’s my best guess. It seemed like an odd meme to me as well.

          I think most people are rooting for them to get their country back.

            Nah, just those who are actively rooting for Maduro.
