For those wondering what you can do to help Venezuela during these times:
The most important part, inform yourself using different media outlets, reading a lot of different testimonials, reading the history of US interventions on Latin America and all around the world. Don't let them tell you how to feel, you must decide for yourself and you must use your critical thinking.
Know that not all Venezuelans are the same and don't expect them to react the same to this. Not all Americans voted for Trump, so it's only logical that not all Venezuelans have the same opinion. Keep that in mind.
Double check any fundraisers and donation links in case they are scams.
Ask yourself what abilities you have and what you can do with them. If you are a lawyer or a historian, then share your analysis about this. If you're an artist, create art to share what is happening (comics, infographics, whatever you can). Create art on the streets if you can, create posters, hang the Venezuelan flag, share your support if you are to do so. Every little act of rebellion is bigger than you think.
Follow the news and the reports.
If you're not at risk, protest against what is happening. No matter the country. Share the news with the people around you, educate them on the conflict and make sure to have as many people as you can speaking about this. Don't let this go silent.
If you're in the United States, call your representatives and pressure them. Trump was breaking US laws too. You can also vote every chance you get for candidates that do not want to invade Venezuela.
Voice your opinion on different social media.
Be prepared to donate so people can get food, water, medicines and other necessities. We will lose power and have water shortages and it's going to be hard for us to get the medicines we most need. Also, be prepared to pay for therapy and counseling for Venezuelans if you can. Many people will need it to process the current events.
