I’m not sure people disagree with Maduro being terrible. But most sane people are against kidnapping a sitting president and inserting themselves into a situation we have no business being in

I’m a leftist and Maduro sucks. That said, American imposed regime change doesn’t have a history of being *stabilizing*. Plus the rest of the Maduro govt is still intact So yeah I’m not gonna say this is a good thing until it’s proven otherwise by material improvement in the lives of Venezuelans

Nobody serious disagrees about Maduro being terrible, but the politics of Venezuela is not our concern

They don’t care. They’ll moral grandstand without ever caring that 3 generations of Venezuelans were starved, jailed, and executed, leading to one of the largest mast exodus’s of any country in the 21st century.

Are you gonna care about the fact that there are actual US citizens then that are wrongfully being deported and beaten by ICE agents? No? Okay great! You’re not morally better than anyone else dumbass. What this is going to lead to is a civil war in Venezuela and or more tension between us and their allies who we are already on shit terms with. We also have 0 right to kidnap another leader even if they’re a dictator. Imagine if someone did that to Trump?

This may sound harsh but the US deserves to feel the taste of their own medicine

Also if past precedent is any indicator the new leader is nearly guaranteed to be worse than Maduro
