>>2629415It's a show trial, anon.
>>2629229>trial will be in march 17th>means maduro will spend almost 3 months away from the country, in detainment before it. likely (much) more of course>according to article 234 of the Venezuelan constitution (https://web.archive.org/web/20140417173551/http://www.tsj.gov.ve/legislacion/constitucion1999.htm), if the president is away for more than 90 days, the national assembly must decide through a majority vote if there's total absence, at which point, according to article 233, due to Venezuela starting it's current legislative period, a new election for a new president will be done in the next 30 days<Article 234. Temporary absences of the President of the Republic shall be covered by the Executive Vice President for up to ninety days, extendable by decision of the National Assembly for an additional ninety days.<If a temporary absence lasts for more than ninety consecutive days, the National Assembly shall decide by a majority vote of its members whether it should be considered a permanent absence.<In the event of the absolute absence of the President-elect before taking office, a new universal, direct, and secret election shall be held within the following thirty consecutive days. While the new President is being elected and taking office, the President of the National Assembly shall be in charge of the Presidency of the Republic. machine translated, sorry about any mistakeshmmmm
>>2629321>>Russia>>Not anticommunistRussia achieved full communism because the workers' state withered away :^)
>>2629351>European population is far more open to Socialism.You mean they are open to vote for someone who call themselves socialist but are actually social-democrats that will distribute gibs based on imperialism. Then you come here and and shit on all the "turd worldists fake socialist shitholes". Yeah, I'm thinking you should kill yourself.
>>2629328>false and misleadingVietnam is a BRICS partner country. Whatever China's feelz, they're not trying to destroy Vietnam or starve its people to death. They're working with them toward mutual development and prosperity. Russia has stopped sanctioning DPRK, and China has relaxed while defending DPRK at the UN on some things and maintaining only UN-mandated sanctions. The reason they went along with sanctions in the first place was they felt they were weak and needed to compromise with the unipolar world. As they grow stronger over time, we see they sanction DPRK less, not more. It was a concession to a reactionary world and one that will disappear entirely in due time.
>>2629419This show trial will last 2+ years, fyi. Trump will become comatose demented before Maduro is sentenced, fyi.
Fyi, fyi.
>>2629423You are an ADHD child who is being entertained by a keychain being jiggled at his face.
>>2629395jones is doing a very dangerous comment there:
this for the Americans to set up the legal basis on which they did the operation which can be translate to ''this for x country to set up the legal basis on which they did the operation" and if China sets up a legal sounding operation of abducting whatever leader that is a threat to UK's interests he should not condemn it. but hey, vassals be vassals.
>>2629427>anti-imperialism is when you uphold bourgeois institutional decorumYou voted for Hillary, Biden, Kamala, right?
>>2629434Infants are, yes.
>>2629310I already made my main position clear: There is nothing about the Bolivarian revolution worth fighting for, Venezueleans do not have a welfare state that is in any way superior to any other latam succdem country. The only people that profit from war are capitalists, while the only people who die feom war are proletariats.
Venezuela has something in favour here however, if the US considers their oil reserves strategic enough to do an Iraq 2.0, then they can allow foreign investment firma into the country, engage in a mixed model and make sure to let them develop them enough to where expropriation could be a relevant fear to western interests, and then just tax the shit out of them.
To believe thousands must die to defend a run-of-the-mill corrupt latam regime just because it crossdresses in red is fucking idiotic.
for the survival of humanity it is imperative to destroy the USA
>>2629419New elections were probably what the opposition was hoping for to legitimize them.
Thread is full!
>>2629427>voting to release some abu ghraib photos in 2004 means you're anti-imperialstit probably just means he's a Democrat, anon
>>2629436>defending the CIA and Abhu Graibhi herr Platner
>>2629441>wanting business done with the U.S.>not China, the country they were in the process of opening up investment toSo this is the power of leftcom
>>2629351>UK almost elected The PRC wasn't built by "almost electing" while shitting on the enemies of american imperialism.
>>2629453>Doing business with China>While Trump is in powerLook at what happened to Mexico, ((($heinbaum))) imposed a fuck load of tariffs against China on behalf of US.
>>2629458Also,.China isn't the one trying to force a coup.
>>2629395This will never work because double standards persist. America needs to be nuked for this to be broken.
>>2629107If by getting involved you mean spending a couple of hours every 4 years to vote for a marginally lesser evil, then yes. At the very least, to not pretend that the outcome has no impact whatsoever.
>>2629111And that's not a good thing.
Fellas is it woke leftoid adventurism to oppose regime change in Venezuela?
>>2629426It will all be bread and circus.
>>2629464No it just means you are a democrat
>>2629468Bolton needs to be sent to a psychiatric clinic. There's something seriously wrong with him.
>>2629458>>2629459Mexico also was never part of and had no intention of joining BRICS.
Maduro was actively trying to gain membership which would have offset that problem.
>>2629453>So this is the power of leftcomits hilarious how they always find a way to dickride western imperialism
>>2629432maybe. but i think the problem will come less with what the PSUV does and more the situation that they're forced into, plus US backed entities potentially taking control of the CNE (where the elections are managed and votes are counted) to ensure "fair" elections. it becomes damned-if-you-do, damned-if-you-don't: continue resisting the US attempts at intervention, and lose all political goodwill by confirming in the eye of the (venezuelan) public that you are not interested at all in liberal democracy (thus providing casus belli for additional bombings, as well…not that it was necessary), or let Milei 2.0 take control of the country through rigged elections and total PSUV demoralization.
>>2629351MEGACommunists lmao
>>2629497Simple fact is that nobody will attempt to stop Trump so long as he sticks to attacking the Americas and leaves the Old World alone.
B A K E
>>2629488 (me)
on paper, this play would also leave a peaceful exit for notable PSUV figures that have constantly been hounded and given death threats by opposition figures, too. MCM looks fucking insane to anyone peeking in from the outside but her total neurotic bloodthirsty compulsion to beg for others to come bomb torture and lynch her own people is shared by plenty of other MUD figures and reactionaries within the country and i imagine this has been a big factor in avoiding PSUV defection. but what happens if they're given the offer to publicly lower their arms, let the US rig an election and admit defeat that way? well, they might think they'll finally be left alone, and allowed to keep enough to live a normal life (they won't, but still)
>>2629458From a national self-interest perspective, it's in Mexico's interest to curb Chinese trade in the country so we can still be AmeriKKKa's No.1 sweatshop and source of cheap labor.
>>2629238They're socdems tho
>>2629149yeah for me those glowies fuck should clearly be banned on sight and their constant shitting up of the threads make me question the moderation
>>2629189yeah honestly I still havent seen any criticism of maduro that wasnt "hes BAD and INCOMPETENT and his regime is CORRUPT" without any actual argument. What actual policy should he have done?
>>2629194>bad currency managementoh yes I'm sure the US financial markets have absolutely nothing to do with this, and they're absolutely not connected to the government. Financial and commercial warfare? Whats this? Only when they announce the sanctions they're actually doing it!
>>2629208>as a supposedly communist governmentthey're not communists
its more a radical socdem / national liberation vibe, although they claim to be socialists
>why the fuck would you go for this weird custom hybrid clusterfuckbecause they didnt seize power in a coup or a revolution, but through liberal electoralism and decided to stay within it (also prolly to avoid giving the USA too much justification to invade them, but I feel even internally they werent strong enough to just go single party and planned economy model without a big civil war). Even most of the local medias shit on them afaik, because they're porkie owned.
>>2629238>the imperialist are attacking us!>well just surrender bro, easy fixkys
>>2629154Stalin would have supported the USSR against dissolution, then after that happened, he would have supported former warsaw pact nations against "democratic" NATO expansion. Remember Ukraine also joined the NATO coalition in Iraq despite not being a NATO member. So he would have supported Iraq against the NATO coalition + Ukraine. He would have supported Ukraine against Euromaidan and Poroshenko's US backed coup. He would support Donbass and Luhansk against the US-backed Kyiv regime, and finally he would support Russia, Donbass, and Luhansk against the US-backed Kyiv regime and NATO expansion.
>>2629247>they do not care about playing politics, it's all just spewing hatred at West/America/White people I think you spend too much of your life on twitter and polyp spaces
>simping for every terrible asshole in the world<anti-imperialism is "simping for every terrible asshole in the world"<you should just accept the imperial narrative, im sure it wont bite you in the assok glowie
>Does this occur to most Socialists thoughyou're just an ignorant idiot. You really think it didnt occur to anyone you fucking idiot? "Just split up the Atlanticist Western bloc bro". Even trump with all the might of his retard strength and open domination still hasnt managed to make eurobitches try to gain some independence, instead they fight among themselves to be the bottom bitch, thinking the minuscule communist multipolarist force could accomplish it (and yet they still try to agitate in that direction) is being completely deluded to the actual situation (which probably sum you up well).
also conflating "the left" "socialists" and "multipolarists" is ridiculous, those are not the same
>>2629154If anything Stalin would've organized an overthrow of Georgia and form the Soviet Republic of Transcaucasia before supporting Russia or Ukraine. Soviet first
>>2629313>Unconditional support to hurricanes bro prays for bad weather and calls himself marxist
