we’re living in a world where the us empire’s ministers publically and flatly admit to doing heinous and getting recorded in official records like the freedom of information act; yet an overwhelming majority of americans continue to refuse to believe that these actions took place.

go forth and spread the good word of socialism to the would-be comrades. lol

it’s easier to see the tankie insistence on lemmy where my concerns about venezuela are rebutted by grey beard tankies; primarily on lemmygrad.

for the stories, you’d have to pay me to search through telesur’s articles, so you’ll either have to look for them yourself or wait for me to catch the next one and update this.

i’m hoping that the new justices give these communities a win; they REALLY need it.

there are factions within Venezuela that want to discredit Delcy Rodríguez

her history of “pragmatism” – friendly to the bolivarian revolution or not – certainly doesn’t help her reputation.

who’s this?

(also i’m thinking i maybe should be latinposting much more)

the language barrier on lemmy is very prominent (which is odd for a french website) and the overwhelming majority of the few spanish speakers that the lemmy verse already have are aligned with either blue or red maga.

the tankies’ insistence or the stories?

Telesur, Russian media … are far from perfect papers of record. They repost CIA assets all the time.

it’s hard to imagine russian media and an bolivarian revolution inspired media institute would disseminate cia talking points

that’s the only reason why i’m still holding out hope because every single indicator that there is suggests that they’re done.

the best case scenario for them is another long march, but that requires holding hope that lightening will strike twice and in the same way.

even telesur is saying similar things.

the tankies keep insisting that venezuelans are in tactical retreat; but stories like this suggest that the war is already over.

it makes we wish i were tankie enough to understand which is true.

the landscape was different back when the soviets supported them and others:

back then, the only source of anti-communist propaganda was the epstein oligarchy through their limited capture of the media and president roosevelt’s new deal proved how woefully ineffective it was against combating reality. today we have professionally & academically researched, tested and, curated propaganda that’s slipped into highly desirable and completely captured media – in a manner much like you would slip a veterinary pill into a treat to administer to a pet dog – and it’s proved to be so effective that westerners themselves are now the biggest source of propaganda via self reinforcement.

these brainworms have us eschewing and voting against things that are in our best self interests like unions, education, housing, healthcare, infrastructure investments, etc. while it has us encouraging things that are objectively bad like genocides, ethnic cleanings, and climate change.

these brainworms simultaneously label anyone who questions it as tankies online or terrorists in real life and the epstein oligarchy has mastered how to silence them without using outright censorship.

these brainworms make us reject any progressive movement by ensuring it gets either captured by people who mislead like aipac/dnc or captured by people who are promoted because they say the right buzzwords – but have an otherwise status-quo platform – like graham platner or hasan piker.

i’m sure that the chinese can see that this brainwormed groupthink has gripped the entire western world and it makes them aware that there are enough westerners caught up in it to effectively make us collectively willing to die on this propaganda manufactured hill and especially so if they push the issue further via intervention or support.

any materialist at any level can see that these perpetual genocides, ethnic cleansings, or climate change will eventually bite us in the ass and the chinese are just as likely aware. history makes the chinese know that nature will do a significantly better job than any intervention or support that they could render – as well as that any action on their part will be met with a brainwormed response – so they chose to take no action; let nature take its course; and primarily focus on themselves.

it’s up to us to get ourselves of this hole that the epstein oligarchy fooled us into digging for ourselves and – if we don’t – climate change will do it for us.
