Reply to comment by DantesDivineConnerdy in The Venezuelan opposition on Friday dissolved the "interim government" led by Juan Guaido, once the popular and internationally recognized face of the drive to oust leftist leader Nicolas Maduro by DoremusJessup

Lmao I've lived here my entire life dude, you know Jack shit.

Angarita was a populist, Jimenez was a dictatorship and got coup'd too, funny how you say USA weren't involved then but "actual Venezuelans" when the governments after him were really close with them.

Everything you mentioned is fairly recent. USA was never involved against Chávez, or even Maduro until sanctions.

Do they have the phrase "moving the goal posts" in Venezuela? Did you just forget that Jimenez' dictatorship was funded by America? I guess you've lived there all your life but maybe you're only like 10 years old and so all of that is ancient history to you.

American oil owns Venezuela-- that's called being involved. American oil owned and funded Chavez just like it owned and funded Jimenez. No matter what side you're on, the unavoidable fact is that America is always involved, and if things aren't going the way they want, they'll assassinate your leaders or fund a coup. Learn your history.

Holy fuck a coup 50 years ago won't have effect on current crisis specially when the entire political system has changed since then.

Jimenez dictatorship funded by USA LMAO, that just shows you know nothing about that period.
