I cannot describe how ignorant and privileged it is to keep calling Maria Corina Machado a far-right, pro-MAGA politician because she wants to negotiate with Trump. News flash, international leaders who want friendly relations with the US have to negotiate with Trump whether they like him or not because he’s our current leader. If you use Machado dedicating her Nobel Prize to Trump and offering to give it up to him as proof that she must love Trump, then all that tells me is you don’t actually see Trump for the threat he is, because Trump being angry that he didn’t get the prize himself literally caused him to stop communicating with and supporting Machado which is something she cannot afford right now.
Machado supports same-sex marriage, medical marijuana, and life-saving abortion procedures, all of which are illegal under Chavismo btw. I won’t sit here and act like she’s an ultra-progressive but she has literally described herself as a liberal and her policies tend to align with the average establishment Democrat in the US, including in regards to her position on Israel, yet as much as people criticize Obama and Biden and Harris for their pro-Israel stances no one is accusing them of being far-right Trump supporters and most reasonable people would agree they are still better than the alternative. It is extremely inappropriate to criticize opposition leaders from a country you couldn’t point to on a map a week ago while staying silent for years when Nicolas Maduro’s regime was capturing, torturing, and killing countless Venezuelan citizens for not supporting him. It may be hard for some of you covert America First-ers to believe but Maria Corina Machado’s top priority right now is not sticking it to Trump, it’s freeing her own country from a dictatorship.
I'm going to have to go through it again, meeting leftists and rightists alike trying to explain Venezuela to me, a Venezuelan. Today, however, I'm celebrating! At last, change is coming!

Gonna make something clear
My account isn't usually political and it's mostly about fandoms, but since July 29th my country Venezuela has been protesting in the streets to defend their vote and right for Democracy, and as a result the government has been arresting, torturing and even killing us.
It's been very disappointing to witness many leftists from other countries (especially Americans) supporting the dictator Nicolas Maduro, his government and his followers while silencing Venezuelan voices who document every atrocity they have and ARE committing against the vast majority of my people.
If you follow me here and are also one of Maduro (or Chavez) supporters and apologists get the fuck out of my profile, block me, DNI, I don't want you NEAR ME

I don't like getting political on main, mostly because of personal issues and anxieties, and maybe it is hypocresy on my end to speak on something just because it personally affects me, but here we go I guess.
Hi, I'm Sal, I'm an inmigrant from Venezuela, I have not returned to my country for 4 years now. Not to visit, not to fix my papers. I am lucky to have been granted citizenship in the country i'm currently residing just because my mom is from there.
I have two grandmothers, one who practically raised me and I had to leave behind, I had a dog, she was my first pet and the smartest dog I've ever met and I had to leave her behind. I have family all around LATAM now, one in the US who cannot go back.
This is what I've heard from family, videos, coverage from the media that was allowed to film:
Monday was a depressing day for my country when the political party that has been in power for 25 years blatantly stole the elections from my people. During the voting process, several voting centers were not opened until mid-day, a tactic used to discourage people from voting, witnesses were not allowed to enter, soldiers were standing guard as an intimidation tactic, people were chased off the lines, and millions of Venezuelans that were able to vote outiside of the country were roadblocked by requirements last minute (I was not able to vote, as we currently don't have the necessary income to afford a three person travel to the neighboring city, and didn't register our location, nevertheless I imagine my parents' names would appear on ballots they did not sign in favour of a goverent they do not support).
I've seen people here in support of this just because of his words pro-Palestine, and this is not me not sharing that sentiment, but to be blinded by the words you want to hear instead of listening to the cries of millions of people who also want freedom and stability in their country, and have voiced it for years, have died for it, then you don't really care about the sentiment behind those words, you care only to point to something and declare it evil, you do not care to fix it or that the people directly under it are calling it out, you need the world to fit your perspective of evil just to act superior.
The regiment I lived in is evil. The regiment that chased off doctors and has caused so many deaths or risk of deaths (I lost a friend, same age as me by anesthesia overdose, I almost lost my little cousin during COVID because they refused to admit it was COVID), the regiment that refused teachers their well earned payment, the regiment that took out power to a whole state for many hours just to shut them up. The blocades from the US or other countries has certainly allowed the situation to worsen but this was poisoned many years before that. The US has allowed this regime to fester because it is convenient for them, because why else would they spend so much money on the oil in Venezuela? Do you honestly believe a blocade was implemented to weaken the goverment? Fuck off dude it's to debilitate the people and allow the donkey we have for a dictator to continue ruling unopossed. It ends, it has to.
Don't be deafened by fancy and simpathetic words of a party that is freely eating the youths and dreams of their citizens, they do not care for your ambitions, they just want to feed themselves and let us starve.
I am against violence in general. But when you've taken all mediums for the people to oppose you, you are inviting the people to make you listen in the only way they can now. I hope the riots that are happening right now work, and I mourn each loss of every family that is making it possible. I pray my family stays safe, I pray my friends stay safe. But fuck you genuinely for saying this was fair, it was never fair, it will never be fair until change happens.
