Sounds like a fairytale compared to what is experienced in thebcountry once you are in, including when being involved with the government (I am no radical oppositor, just in case).
I agree. I keep seeing users reposting this type of article about Venezuela and it's obvious they have never been there. Most likely have never been to Latin America. The reality on the ground is a stark contrast. Venezuelans are flooding neighboring countries to get out.
And a relative of mine once had somehow close links to Diosdado and Maduro during the times of the harshest economic struggle (from 2013 to 2017), and he learned that Polar Enterprises (their supposed biggest capitalist neoliberal local enemy at the time) personally sent groceries from the company to the houses of both Maduro and Cabello. He also told me that Polar's CEO Lorenzo Mendoza personally called their security staff in order to let the food pass.
That was the time when the massive migration started, mainly because many people could not afford food or had to do long lines to get them at affordable prices (ridiculously low prices, as minimum wage became less than 3$ per month).
That's why I say this is a joke. Maybe some popular forces at the lowest levels may have serious intentions and loyalty towards the cause commented in this article, but it becomes a blatant joke to extol Maduro and Diosdado. Like if the writers had no idea of how strong the 'panes et circenses' aspect of modern politics has become.
The keystone cops military and diplomatic circus (aka America) couldn’t overpower tiny little Cuba at a time when their power was at it’s peak and they had a somewhat passable president.
They are now in terminal decline, their bloated military having been defeated by everyone from the Vietnamese to the Taliban and they are now led by a complete idiot.

United they stand

What could possibly go wrong in Venezuela?
Thanks for your great work!
