    Also to keep in mind is the regional situation, with resurgent right-wing governments in Brazil/Argentina, and Maduro being one of the last vestiges of the hard left in the region, alongside Evo.
    That is dying before it had the chance of being conceived. Even with all the media aparatus behind him, the cat isn't winning another election, tbh.

    Could be, but he's the current president, and it's doubtful hard-left like Cristina can come back either. Bolsonaro is another example. Chile always had center-right presidents. Uruguay also moved to the middle, etc.

    Politically, it's much different than when you had Kirchner, Chavez, Evo, Lula, Mujica...

    On one hand, it's difficult not to recognize that Maduro is another iteration of the cheap SA dictator, tbh...
    Except he is not a dictator. He won the last presidential elections. The opposing candidates who ran acknowledged that as well as international monitors and numerous audits proved it.

    Dont get me wrong Maduro is crap and needs to go. But that should happen in election cycles not coups. Much less foreign coups.

    Or the fact that to get rations from the government you need to show a digital ID card which tells them who you voted for.
    Can you provide links that proved this pls?

    He wasn't even cons utionally allowed another term. He's just been continually running these crippled 'elections' to override both Congress and Venezuela's Cons ution.

    He really is your run-of-the-mill SA dictator: supported by the military, rigged the SCOTUS and shut down Congress and any opposition. You know the kind, we've had a lot of these guys in the '70s-'80s...

    Typical SA dictators would come from the military and would never hold elections tbqh They would also kill most dissidents (desaparecidos) not jail them

    Card tracks if you voted and what's your political affiliation... really, not that complicated.

    And sure they're optional, but no card, no rations.

    Anywhere in the world Cristina is hard-left... but regardless, the point that the region has transitioned to the middle-right stands.

    So no proof who you voted for is being used to distribute rations? Mmok

    Btw political afgiliation and if you voted can be easily obtained by US govmt or any govmt on any of its citizens as well

    And sure they're optional, but no card, no rations.
    No read again. That would make them mandatory

    "Hard-leftists" aren't self proclaimed capitalists, tbh.

    The supporters of true left parties here all hate Cristina.

    Sure, but subsidies are not based on whether you voted or your political affiliation. There's actually laws against political discrimination and the law is enforced, not a farse.

    No it woudn't. Getting rations isn't mandatory. But if you want or need them, you need to show the card.

    After 8 years of Cristina you really can call her capitalist? Come on son, she ran the most closed economy in Argentina in decades.

    Nestor is a different story.

    She called herself that. "Hard-leftists" are proud of being that, they would never call themselves capitalists.

    Who cares what she calls herself? Maduro calls himself the father of the land. It's what they do.

    Isn't this Maduro guy the one that said Chavez appeared to him from the dead as a little bird and told him everything will be ok?

    If it wouldn't be so tragic, some of this stuff would almost be comical...

    Yet, he would never call himself a capitalist, because he trully is a "hard-leftist".

    Argentinian true "hard-leftists" laugh at the idea of Cristina being one of them. That's because she isn't.

    First off, as a socialist I hope Maduro is brought to justice quickly. He is a crook and a cheat and is doing a huge disservice to socialist governments across the region, not to mention Venezuelans.

    That said, the hypocrisy here is disgusting. When leftist guerrillas fight against corrupt dictators far more violent and oppressive than Maduro, the media talks about sovereignty, rule of law, democratic process bla bla bla. When the dictator is socialist or communist however, the speech is all about how people have to fight back, the need to be righteous vs tyranny, invasion etc.

    Here in Chile, they recently tried to extradite from France a guerrilla fighter who assassinated the senator who wrote Pinochet's cons ution (which is still in effect). France denied the extradition, citing that Chile s judiciary that had declared him guilty was polluted by Pinochet appointed judges, and that Chile had denied similar extradition requests by France for soldiers and police convicted of murdering French citizens in Chile. The same right that promotes the removal of Maduro by any means possible had a fit, as if they actually had a sound legal or moral argument. the same right that cries about context to justify their military dictatorships and their torture, murder, and theft, always talks about leftist dictatorships in black and white. (And of course, the same right that does nothing to extradite the numerous soldiers police and cia agents in the us and germany responsible for torture and murder)
