I understand that people just hegemonically accept venezuela as authoritarian, but what are the exact arguments and ideas people have? What are the facts?

  1. 15 years of vuvuzela no iphone propaganda.

  2. The media cycle that attempted to get Juan Guaido into power on the back of national unrest that occurred over sanctions, which was paired with some sus attacks and I suspect an attempt to convert it into a colour revolution.

  3. The 2024 media cycle with the election being so close and accusations of fixing it.
