RE: The U.S. Government Destroyed Venezuela not Socialism
I'm not sure why you think I would disagree with anything you just said
Maybe because you wrote this:
A while back I got into an argument with someone claiming to be from Venezuela about this topic. They basically claimed the obvious reason I was wrong was because they were from Venezuela... like... really?
It has always been easy to defend socialism while living in a non socialist country.
You also mention:
Your location on the globe doesn't increase knowledge regarding geopolitics.
Do you think conspiracy nutjobs are good references when understanding geopolitics?
Socialism always ends in totalitarianism, Venezuela is not the exception, besides, the regime is involved with Hezbollah and other criminal organizations.
You claim to defend blockchain and all the freedom it can bring, but you defend a regime that imposed a currency exchange control over its people and has been expropriating (stealing) companies for years? Socialism is anti freedom, just because America (a great country in many ways, btw) are their enemies, you shouldn't do mental gymnastics to defend these totalitarian murderers.
Also, Venezuelan people are kidnapped, they cannot get rid of these totalitarians by their own because guns are forbidden by the government, and elections are completely rigged.
Luckily the rest of the freedom lover countries understand this and soon enough they will destroy these people by force.
Yes, I would consider a "conspiracy nutjob" to have a better understanding of geopolitics than most people. These people are naturally global thinkers. They know that money rules the world and they extrapolate that knowledge to explain how the world works.
The problem with extrapolation and global thinking is that you can often assume incorrect foundations and find yourself in a place where you are building conspiracy theories on very little fact.
No, I don't.
America doesn't have enemies. America has slaves, and some of those slaves resist and need to be put back into their place. The financial bonds of debt-slavery surround 99.9% of the population.
You sound like a walking talking propaganda bot. America financially enslaves as many countries as it can and calls it freedom. We have destabilized country after country in the name of "freedom". It's sad so many people believe these lies and even propagate them.
You can't fight the government with guns. They have tanks and planes and drones and surveillance spy networks. Guns are laughable. The second amendment of the US constitution is a laughable joke under the purpose of its original intent.
You don't sound like a Venezuelan.
You sound like a brainwashed pro-war American.
No? Have you ever say something against maduros regime?
What is sadder is seeing people pretend they support freedom while defending a totalitarian regime. Of course America has a lot of issues that should be discussed, but you aren’t recognizing that the Venezuelan people have been kidnapped by a criminal organization for years. How do you think this problem can be solved?
If you think Venezuelans can fix this disaster by their own, they can’t, there is simply no solution without international help. Individuals should be able to own guns if they wish, don’t you agree?
Sure, it is a much better idea having the government controlling all of the guns. Every totalitarian regime forbids its citizens the ownerships of guns, you should know that.
Brainwashed you say? Answer this, how would you fix the Venezuelan problem? Prove how ignorant you are about this issue and propose your solution, if you have any... which I know you don’t.
