HAPPENING

Holy shit, those are Maduro troops on the bikes, or the other way around?

I get the impression from the Espanol that the bikers are Maduro.

Pro Maduro I think. Actually military. The military always rides bikes in Caracas or at least they did when I was there. I guess they are

An opposition activist wearing a homemade gas mask takes cover behind a makeshift shield in Caracas on May 8. Protests against Maduro's tactics have turned into a political crisis.

The tyranny of whom, though? Megabanks that are demanding their last few sheckles, or the incompetent government officials that based their entire economy on the price of oil? Maybe ARAMCO for going public, or OPEC or Goldman Sachs for fixing the price lower?

national socialism.

always blame the banks.

I just want to know who the tyrant is. The last slob in office that has to manage a total lack of resources? How much personal agency has he had, exactly?

I'm aware of the bakery stupidity, but what else has he done to be labelled "tyrant"?

lol Venezuela had massive gold resources they lent out years ago. They are trying to pay down the loan best they can in light of the oil downturn. Not trying to defend the regime but I'm honestly getting tired of low information people branding everything they don't like as Hitler.
