Totally false right-wing propaganda. It's crazy that anyone believes these absurd myths

The (tiny, rich, elite) opposition regularly has protests in Venezuela, without any repression at all

Unlike this propagandist I spent 5 months in Venezuela this year
Venezuela has not even arrested the right-wing coup-mongers who are openly collaborating with the US and Colombian death squads and calling on the military to overthrow the elected govt

In the US they would be hanged for treason. In Caracas they walk free
In fact a major right-wing opposition leader admitted Venezuela “is not a dictatorship,” calling it a “huge error” to claim otherwise

She conceded the only way to topple the popular elected Chavista government is with foreign “humanitarian intervention” thegrayzone.com/2019/05/15/opp…
