The purpose of this community is sort of a "work out your frustrations by letting it all out" where different leftist tendencies can vent their frustrations with one another and more assertively and directly challenge one another. Hostility is allowed, but any racist, fascist, or reactionary crap wont be tolerated, nor will explicit threats.

Communist branches respond to Nicolás Maduro: "Mr. President, it is you who drives a bus full of corrupt people"

Indignation and total rejection has been registered in the last hours in the ranks of the Communist Party of Venezuela after President Nicolás Maduro confirmed his participation in the judicial assault on the PCV on January 4 and declared -without any proof- that the legitimate leadership, elected by the XVI National Congress, had "surrendered" to "corruption" and "imperialism".

From the hemisphere of the National Assembly, the Head of State made a point of greeting the political operator of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV) appointed to star in the theft of the PCV's acronym, Henry Parra; however, the "mercenary" was not in the room.

"With their lies, even repeated a thousand times -as it seems they learned from the fascist regimes-, they will not be able to hide the intervention assault committed by the leadership of the government against the PCV, using mercenaries and the fraudulent action of the Constitutional Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice", the "Pablo Neruda" branch of the PCV in Aragua state lashed out.

For its part, the membership of the "Silvino Varela" branch of the PCV in Caracas declared in a communiqué: "Mr. President, Nicolás Maduro, you are the one driving a bus full of corrupt people and attempting a maneuver to continue deceiving our people".

Also from the Venezuelan capital, the plenary of the "Alberto Bustos Fernandez" branch warned that "Venezuelans know who are the real corrupt and traitors of the people; and they know who are the incorruptible and loyal to the working class".

The organization recalled that while former Minister Rafael Ramírez was at the head of PDVSA, the PCV requested an investigation of his administration, "but [Maduro's wife] Cilia Flores and [PSUV number 2] Diosdado Cabello prevented the National Assembly from investigating him" and "Maduro protected him by appointing him as Venezuela's Ambassador to the UN".

Along the same lines, the "Pedro Pascual Abarca" branch of the PCV in Portuguesa state affirmed: "The Venezuelan people know that the PSUV leadership is taken over by corruption and has surrendered to imperialism".

The Caracas based "Raul Reyes" branch also addressed the Head of State to remind him that "you are the one who supports corruption by protecting the former Minister of Petroleum, the delinquent Tarek El Aissami" and added: "We also remind you that the party you preside over has been characterized for being a quarry of corrupt people, as has been demonstrated with dozens of PSUV militants imprisoned for corruption".

"It is appropriate to explain [to the President] that Hugbel Roa is not a militant of the PCV, neither is Tarek El Aissami, who stole with full hands from his government", specified the "César Vallejo" branch of the PCV in Nueva Esparta state.

From the Sucre municipality of Miranda State, the secretariat of the "Ernesto Che Guevara" branch assured the President that "all the communication apparatus of your Government to wash the face of the most corrupt administration that our history has ever known will be of no use" and pointed out: "you enjoy the contempt of the majority of Venezuelans. Neither you nor your governmental leadership represent the values of dignity, honesty and the sacred ethics of public affairs".

In Guárico, the "Jerónimo Carrera" branch took stock of the anti-popular policy of the government leadership and asserted that "the President of the Republic, who today kneels before national and transnational capital, has no ethics or morals to name and attack the Communist Party of Venezuela, and should -instead- dedicate himself to solving the high levels of corruption, mediocrity and inefficiency that have characterized his government administration".

The membership of the PCV's "Pío Tamayo" branch warned that these false accusations by President Maduro, issued "with shameless cretinism", give way to "a new phase of aggression: that of false positives, to put together rigged dossiers against the true, legitimate and genuine militancy and leadership of the PCV".

The political assault on China never ended, but somehow Xi managed to clear house of the plethora of disgustingly corrupt officials that were driving China into the ground.

Is criticizing Maduro for purposefully failing to eliminate corruption, and instead profiting off of it, bad?

When is a “good time” to criticize a non-leftist government? Or should Venezuelan communists just shut up and sit on their hands?
