The opposition trying to take power with Trump’s backing in Venezuela is the SAME opposition that BURNED ALIVE a young man, as the mob screamed “hey Black guy, this is what happens to Chavistas” 
We fled the country because they were trying to lynch us too. A week later, they shot our reporter colleague in the back, nearly killed her. The opposition is fascist through and through
Another reporter they doused in gasoline and tried to set on fire, but he escaped. Last coup plot included plans to blow up pro-government news stations. Mass murdering journalists is fascist
And this violence wasn’t just from the coked-out foot soldiers burning the country down and lynching people, but planned and encouraged by the highest echelons of Venezuela’s super-rich opposition leadership.
You can see all our on-the-ground reports from the 2017 coup attempt here: youtube.com/playlist?list=…
About 50 people confronted me at my office in LA, tried to find our home address, with countless documented threats of burning us alive, raping Abby, etc. Just because we reported something that refuted the corporate media narrative. Cool crowd!
To be clear, the photo I posted was by no means isolated. Opposition gangsters murdered many civilians simply for being pro-Maduro, or Afro-Venezuelans they assumed were pro-Maduro. They even kidnaped and tortured some to death. This is the future the coup will bring
See, they can’t even help themselves! They’re so brazenly fascist they’re proud of lynching this man, and aren’t afraid to publicly threaten to kill you too.
Not to disparage anyone who uses drugs, but it’s noteworthy that a number of protesters we tried to interview were so cracked out they couldn’t speak. They were good at setting things on fire, tho
