Gonna be honest, not a lot of good news this time around 🥲
Nice and early for our beautiful patrons
Forget the zionists demanding their 'right' to 'return' now we have hyper zionism, the right to r*pe

Are you going to tell your little pal, BadEmpanada about US electoral observers being on the ground in Venezuela? Who seems to think that Maduro somehow "fiddled" the election? BadEmpanada is mostly great but seems to go off on these contrarian tangents to show what an edgy little chap he is!

Re dems voting for Kamala:
Never underestimate liberals desire to prove to themselves that they aren’t racist (or sexist) and to restore that false Obama-era image of US progressivism to rest of the world.

The venezuelan elections were not legitimate. Maduro has been doing austerity in the past years and has dissapeared thoudands

I messaged the same question on the discord and JT said it was from friends of the pod Mint Press

That said, PSL’s newspaper did some good coverage on Venezuela too

That’s why I usually call my dad and read it to him out loud, cuz I know he won’t read it if I don’t. Or I’ll take notes on the major points and find sources that back them up that don’t have ‘scary’ urls lol. That’s about as far out of my way I’ll go to appease liberal fears.

Asking in good faith here for anyone who might know or have resources: what else, aside from the US sanctions, can help explain the Venezuelan refugee / migrant exodus?
Significant trends of outward migration from Venezuela have been observed since the beginning of the Bolivarian Revolution, but it wasn’t really until 2017-ish that it became the “crisis” that it is frequently described as. That doesn’t seem to line up with the timelines of different targeted sanctions (thinking 2005, 2019). Any insight is appreciated, thanks!!

Completely unrelated to the episode but Hakim mentioned a book by a Japanese Marxist about fiat currency on a livestream with Marxist Paul like 3 years ago and I was wondering if he remembered the name. I’ve been searching for months and still haven’t found it lmfao

Wouldn't it be funny if Kamala becomes president because Trump dies from natural causes before Jan 2025?

I don’t care about the Kamala vs Trump election except for seeing either react to losing

This time appears to be less obvious though. Even the Carter center that had certificated previous elections has said that this time they have been unable to do so.
I reject every intervention, every meddling in Venezuela. That said I don't trust Maduro either. I don't know if they are legit but even a communist party there has said Maturity Maduro's party tried to hinder their own primaries.
Besides maduro seems kind of reactionary and not much of a socialist.
Not that the opposition is any better, mind you

Need to get Alan on to discuss the Venezuelan election. Would love to hear his perspective and hear about the manipulation of the votes on the opposition side. Wouldn’t be surprised if the CIA didn’t have a hand in that.

I'm sure it's a great read, but I fear the URL will scare liberals away and cause then to not take it seriously 🙄

I second this, my neoliberal dad just asked for sources on this. As for background context, I found an interview on marxists.org called Venezuela: What’s going on. May be a good place to start.

Anybody got any sources for the Venezuelan election observer statements I can send through the wall to my pearl -clutching, liberal mother?
