Despite his best efforts to shit upon anyone who even lightly attempts to interact with him (his best and worst trait), his "takes" are very often correct. People might not like specific phrasing and sort of "hedging" around his opinions of certain nations and/or leaders, but if you focus on his core statements, he agrees with most people who frequent lemmygrad/hexbear.

He's not even saying Madura staying is good or bad, btw. He's just saying that as far as he can tell, and from videos and such he's seen from people in Venezuela, the election was rigged. His point (this is me translating from Asshole to English) is: "who cares? It makes sense that given Madura's mistakes, which cannot be blamed solely on the US, people who aren't all that engaged in the political process want a different guy. Any guy. Even voting for right wingers." Which makes sense if you apply that logic to other nations where voters will vote to punish leaders during times of hardship even if the resulting change of government worsens things.

That said, I don't know dick about Venezuela and will be withholding much opinion besides "always be extremely skeptical of US media and state department- but do not totally discount them. They only lie most of the time. Sometimes if truth is more effective they'll tell the truth." Hopefully time will reveal, with proof, the full situation.
