#YearInReview 2021 was a pivotal year for us in terms of expanding our social media focus. With a graphic makeover too, the biggest hit has been our Instagram account, which in months has surpassed 1200 followers and is growing fast. Follow us at instagram.com/venanalysis/
Besides all our regular news and opinion content, on Instagram you'll also find videos (bit.ly/3sOjGw3), infographics (bit.ly/3Ft91KH), special milestones (bit.ly/3psmrRr) and a whole lot more
Linktree is a neat workaround for Instagram's one link policy. If you don't need any extra paraphernalia, this is a good option to get links to all our recent content and older stuff we bring back up when needed: linktr.ee/venanalysis
We also created a Telegram channel so you can get updated whenever there's something new published. Join us at t.me/venanalysis
Producing more regular YouTube content is definitely one of our priorities for the coming year. In the meantime, you can catch up with our podcast episodes as well as the awesome videos jointly produced w/ Venezuelan collective @TatuyTv

youtube.com/channel/UCEaCa…
Finally, on to our oldest and most "traditional" social media channels. If Facebook is your preferred network, be sure to follow us at facebook.com/venanalysis. News, analysis, videos and a lot more to read, share and comment on
Last but not least, Twitter! By far our most active and successful social media operation. A one-stop-shop for new articles, hot takes on new developments, takedowns of disingenuous social media coverage and merciless trolling of @jguaido and fellow US puppets
And to wrap up, here are our more most successful tweets this year. #3 was Venezuelan triple jumper winning gold at the Olympics and shattering the world record 🇻🇪🥇
#2 is a moment that won't feature in the history books but which describes this period in Venezuelan history just perfectly
And #1... We should all be ashamed of ourselves 😂

This was a long thread to say that there is no excuse to miss VA content! News briefs, opinion columns, infographics, podcasts, videos, hot takes and a lot more in different shapes and forms. And it's all reader-funded!

The Venezuelan National Assembly approved a reform to the country’s Hydrocarbon Law in its first discussion. A second discussion and final vote are expected soon. This is arguably the country’s most important piece of legislation, so let’s look at what’s at stake 🧵🧵🧵 Image
Some background: Venezuela’s present energy legislation was established under the Hugo Chávez govts. It was first approved in 2001 and later had some amendments. In essence, it reaffirmed the state’s sovereignty over natural resources and established control over the oil industry Image
Chávez’s reforms mandate that state oil company PDVSA hold majority stakes (in some cases at least 60%) and run oilfield operations. Taxes on oil profits were set 50%, royalties were raised (in some cases from 1%) to 30% across the board Image

The bar is always high (or low, rather), but every now and then the New York Times delivers an all-time masterpiece of journalistic dishonesty and pliant service to US imperialism. This is a piece about (imaginary ties) between Hezbollah and Venezuela: 🧵 archive.is/FPrMQImage
First off, the US kidnapped/abducted Maduro. But US exceptionalism runs so deep that corporate stenographers believe Washington can just "seize" foreign leaders. But the relevant part here is that all we have here are claims by Rubio and US officials Image
Image
This section is just empty fluff meant to malign Iran and Venezuela. Notice the nonsense of saying the countries are "bound by anti-American ideology" like it's some kind of bad taste in music, as opposed to the result of decades of imperialist attacks Image

A controversial afternoon (on Twitter) after the orangeman-in-chief lashed out at Colombia after the Petro government refused to accept repatriation flights with shackled migrants in military airplanes. Trump threatened tariffs and sanctions, Petro replied defiantly
Trump's disgusting (even by his standards) xenophobic and imperialist antics barely a week into his term have drawn fierce rebukes across the hemisphere. Honduran President Xiomara Castro called for an extraordinary summit in a few days

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro also voice his support, telling his Colombian counterpart he can count on the "strength and experience" of the Venezuelan people and calling for further regional unity Image

🧵When it comes to reporting about Venezuela, there is no corporate outlet even remotely close to the level of dishonesty of the New York Times. Seriously, it's one piece of misrepresented bullsh*t after another. Follow this thread as we break it down Image
This is the piece:

The article is not to be taken seriously b/c it starts from a blatant lie. US "prodding" has nothing to do with Venezuela holding elections. It is dictated by the Constitution that they be held this year and they were never in doubt shorturl.at/LFusR
Image
Anyone not high on Western exceptionalism would actually be ashamed of their government meddling in other countries' affairs. But alas, this is the NYT.

In corporate media spiel, "restoring democracy" just means a US puppet being back in the presidential palace Image

🧵🧵The border dispute between Venezuela and Guyana has flared up recently, leading to a war of words, increased military deployment and increasing signs of US intervention. We have prepared an infographic to explain the history and context of the controversy (thread) Image
The Essequibo Strip is a sparsely populated, 160,000 square km region spanning to the west of the Essequibo River. It has been the subject of centuries of dispute which, sadly, have never taken into account the indigenous population Image
Instead, it has always been pretty much about resources. Gold mining is what drove British expansion westward (more on this below), and the recent discoveries of massive oil deposits led to Venezuela and Guyana raising tensions too Image

About time... Spain's @el_pais reports that the $3 billion in frozen Vzlan assets will soon be released. This was agreed to between the Venezuelan govt and opposition last November! But this thread is to point out the dishonest b.s. from the Spanish establishment's mouthpiece 🧵 Image
This is the article in question:

It essentially relies on anonymous sources who say that the funds will soon be released. El País then covers this fairly straightforward report in a cloak of lies and misconceptionsenglish.elpais.com/international/…
So it begins. How dare Maduro want to access Venezuelan funds? Then it's incredibly disingenuous and racist to claim the govt wants to fix schools/hospitals to "polish its image." If a western govt builds a hospital, it's laudable. If Vzla does it it's to fool voters. GTFOH Image
