if we protest, the National Guards will repress Us but not only that

So? You fight them.

Paramilitary groups and Hidden Snipers will start kill the protesters

170 young guys died 2 years ago because of the protests

Then you set fire to the buildings

it is easy to say it to be honest but is really hard

They can't see you through the smoke, and have to deal with the problem. It's better to burn it all than let it be used against you

in fact we could overtrow Maduro and his gabinet 2 years ago

but let me explain why this protests didn't work and they have NO POINT

Because a protest is not a revolution

i don't even participate in them because i know there's no point at them, let me explain

The politicians here are cowards, the same old faces, the same idiology etc

many dissident socialists and Marxists in Venezuela are also openly attacking Maduro and saying that, under his administration, the country is sliding towards Fascism and any progress towards Socialism is being stagnated. Like the notion that Venezuela is socialist is fucking ridiculous.

The economy is not planned like it was in USSR. There is no network of councils/soviets, official and workers' alike, that regulate and execute production directives. The tropes of socialism are not present in Venezuela, I don't know where the notion that its a socialist economy comes from.

they don't have BALLS also

@Xinyue They're just trying to blame him as a person, instead of the policies that led to him in the first place.

ah yes, nobody here understands what socialism means apparently. none. fucking great

@Grimm0175 Then stand up and lead them like sheep.

Hello!

the thing is that in 2014 this huge protests started and the politicians in the coalition of MUD (Democratic Table Bureau) that convoked them, so people were participating, they started like at 8am

and then the hours passed, the tear gass, etc you know typical

then it's 2pm and this politicians says "Everybody go home and protests from your houses at 8pm"

socialism isn't some vague fucking concept revolving around "muh welfare state", "muh social programs" or this and that common talking point. its not *kinda public-regulated economy,* its a *total and complete worker ownership and direction of the economy, either directly or via elected mediators,* and exists ***in the absence of the capitalist class and capitalist property relation***

Venezuela is not socialist. Its not. Its at best a mixed economy.

the same thing happened in 2017

@Xinyue just accept your idiology doens't work

@Xinyue Socialism

even Maduro enjoys capitalism

Hitler wasn't a socialist

and he does deals with Narcos

read before you comment @Xinyue 😛 mneh

anyway so @A_Wizard lead my people? it's really hard to be honest and here's my annother point

Yeah, it's hard, but you can do it.

Yes, Hitler wasn't a socialist

Venezuelans are dessesperate, and some of them are divided, they also believe in the first thing they see

its very clear, even by his own admission

@Xinyue Hitler was the Avatar of Vishnu, the man against time who would prepare the way for Lord Kalki's return to scourge you commies from the earth.

but how divided they are? well... some says things like "Look an Infiltrated G-2 CUBAN AGENT", naaaaah this is false and a big ETC

so not a socialist. great. I hate the fact that he posed himself as such

and then the fight starts and so on

Grim, they're desperate, and in need of a leader.
