that bbc article is so hilariously atrocious, using apparent "neutral" terms and sentences like "Supporters of Mr Maduro say his party has lifted many people out of poverty, but critics say it has eroded Venezuela's democratic institutions and mismanaged its economy."

wow

fucking bbc

they really are ran by authoritan leftists

fucking commies

yes, they're just masking it, and I think it's the kind of masking that works on normies

I think that sentence would have worked on me 5 years ago

really makes me wonder how many other "neutral" news articles and reports I've seen over the years, where I have been utterly fooled

There’s a giant difference between being neutral and making things seem neutral

The bbc are just obscuring

ban op from elections seems like a solid plan

Of course

What could possibly go wrong?

You can either vote for the glorious leader, or you can stay at home.

Hmmmmm

Stay at home you are a traitor too

I'm telling you, give it 5 years, it'll turn into North Korea.

Without the infrastructure<:pepe_why:378719408367075333>

They don't need infrastructure, they need bullets.

5 years from now they'll be expanding their territory into Colombia and Brazil.

It's remarkably hard to defend borders in the middle of the fucking jungle.

They need money to have bullets

fucking daniel is a commie love

@Deleted User helicopters for moduro when?

🚁 for commies

free 🚁 rides for commies

?

How is predicting what a dictator is going to do, being a commie lover?

do you want helicopter rides daniel?

Also brazil's military is not the Worst

or do you want ot give them?

Brazil's jungle warfare is pretty kickass from what I heard

Don't they fail daily at stopping drugs from entering through the amazonian airspace?

They are the only south american country with a carrier

We fail daily at stopping drugs into our airspace

wait what!?

brazil has a fuckiing carrier?

since fucking when?

I thought they were too

poor

or corrupt

It might sink just like that Argentinian submarine.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazilian_aircraft_carrier_São_Paulo_(A12)

well

would you look at that

brazil does have a carrier

huh...

wait

What!?

the spanish and thai have carriers too!??!

fuck

How did I not know

@DanielKO Is this showing all carriers ever?

I think its of right now

All current carriers, yes.

That should be as of right now

because india, china and uk are building mroe carriers

also france

I think russia might be building another one too

oh, it's also showing those that are in progress

ok

that makes more sense

Might be better to use https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_aircraft_carriers_by_country

Because it lists their statuses.

Since that image has no date.

huh

thanks daniel

Ramps 😂

😗

ramps?

wot

what do you mean?

explain

Everyone else still needs ramps

brazil had a carrier

"On 14 February 2017, the navy announced the ship's demobilisation and subsequently decommissioning.[1]

"

So, what led me to my prediction is, Brazil's institutions appear quite weak right now... everyone and their dog is involved in a corruption scandal stinking of organized crime.

So I doubt they'd be able to act if Venezuela started expanding their borders.

yeah maybe

I think their border with venzula is unexplore or some shit like that

Brazil is number 13 in the world of military spending

maybe they'll get cannabalized by the tribes livng there

They have some solid police and military forces

ehhh

you mean corrupt police

and military forces

Just because they spend money, doesn't mean it's well spent.

Corrupt does not mean they could not defend their boarders

They at least have money to spend

actually

they probably could defend themselves from venzuela

venzuela has no money to bribe brazillians with

kek

How will Venezuela fund their invasion and occupation

^

They don't even have shit whipping paper

or food

Do they have no money though? The people got no money. I don't think there's no money in the largest oil reserves in the world.
