Venezuela

>socialism is retarded t. Yankees
>yankees are evil t. Chavez and Maduro
Decide on your biases and then take your pick

Its a little unfair to include Allende with Stalin and especially with Mao, he was nowhere near as bad as either of them

I'm pretty sure Pinochet has caused more death than Allende, m8.

A worker's commonwealth.

Entropy: Final phase.

Probably the CIA undermining democratic regimes again.

The USA fears and hates democracy and freedom.

expect cannibalism in a few months

>communists
>humans

It was for the greater good

...

This. Their waived their rights by embracing communist ideology.

communist utopia :^)

Looks like Chavez and Maduro are proving the Yankees right though.

Democratic Socialism in action

>The issues were never in doubt.

.In Venezuela, you had the economic elite deliberately worsening shortages. Huge stocks of consumer goods buried and hidden.

They should have been purged.

>It's another "socialists deflect responsability" episode.

>accused Reagan of spending millions to support terrorism
>he actually was

Nice argument there

I for one I am glad they are collapsing and choose a truck driver for a leader. Serves them right after bullshitting and coercing SA into their bullshit system. The leftards tears as they try to look for a scapegoat makes it even better.

Killing gommies is not terraristism.

venezuelans are cucks
thanks for free oil

25 years rule is happening
/ this thread now

One could use the same exact argument against capitalists, or liberal, or anything they're opposed to, because it is shitposting and not quite an argument.

This.

Except in this case it's true.

>Communists caring about the truth.

They care about it, they care about it so much that if you speak it you will be gulaged

but millions of people didnt die "for the greater good" in those other "ism" you counted. Besides liberalism maybe and the french revolution, but thats more like communism, class-hate that leads to death...

That's not democratic socialism you retarded twat. Jesus Christ, Americans are completely retarded on the political spectrum

>le ebin gorillions XDDD

When this meme will die??

Except the guy just said Allende was killed "for the greater good" my friend.

>Implying I'm a communist
>Hurrr if he's arguing against me he must be in the complete opposite of the spectrum durrrrr

Chavez constantly accused his opponents of being crypto-Jews and broke relations with Israel.

German here, actually Americans get politics right.

Here in Yurop everything is shifted to the left, making the neolib parties the only ones worth voting for.

But you're probably a Bernie supporter kukk who thinks democratic socialism is good so whatever.

Typical

Pinochet was bad, but he only had ~3000 people killed, not that many for a dictator.

Bolivarian Socialism.
Bolivia at least stuck with the leftist rhetoric but then kept economic orthodoxy with a few exceptions. Before they got 20% of the hydrocarbon profits then Morales switched it to 80% (private company gets 20%) instead of a proper nationalisation. Their economy minister said that they must create capitalism first then socialism.

For the first time in the history of Latin America a socialist country enacted socialist policies, policies that were praised by socialist intellectuals, without a coup d'etat (there was an attempt but it failed) and without an U.S. embargo.

There are no more excuses, which is why you don't see people who spent the last decade praising Venezuela talking too much about it now. Noam Chomsky, Tariq Ali, Oliver Stone, they are all silent on the collapse of the country they promoted so much. As a Brazilian it's even worse, the entire left supported and envied Venezuela, they spent the last 15 years saying that Brazil should follow the same path and criticizing the opposition for restricting the government attempt of bringing Bolivarianism to Brazil. Now they pretend they never actually supported the Bolivarian Revolution in the first place. In a few years, they will say it wasn't even "real socialism".

But I will remember.

Not a meme.

>>>/leftypol/

It has been a failure, but it wasn't a failure of capitalism or America so choam nomsky isn't going to comment.

What is happening is the inevitable result of leftist cultural hegemony, which in Venezuela predates Hugo Chávez by more than a century.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/José_Antonio_Páez

>Between 1830–1848 under the power of Páez and the oligarchy, the economic power of the church was broken and its dominance destroyed. From then on, the conflict between church and state ended, unlike in other countries in Latin America.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonio_Guzmán_Blanco

>Also a distinguished freemason, he sharply reduced the power of the Roman Catholic Church in Venezuela while in office.

As the rest of Latin America and Europe was fighting it's own culture wars between the Freemasonry and the Church, in Venezuela the issue was resolved by the early XIXth century, the Freemasonry had won a monopoly over the cultural, economical and political spheres of society and the power of independent intermediary associations was broken.

In the XXth century, the role of the Masonic liberalism and radicalism was taken over by communism and it was in this intellectual climate that someone like Hugo Chávez could appear and become socially acceptable even for the intelligentsia to support.

Even the opposition to him in Venezuela is socialist and Marxist. There is no hope for the country.

how can a man that's been so consistently wrong about everything still be revered by the media and college students worldwide?

Seriously, this man is painfully disingenuous, at some point he must have said to himself "oh shit I'm wrong" but then instead of owning up to it he just blamed America again and got media attention

A man's got to eat.

Please change your dealer or take half of this stuff

Oh the irony...
