Today feels like living in a completely insane alternate reality. Kidnapping a foreign president and charging him on crimes based on another country's laws is just insane beyond words. And all western leaders are having piss luke warm reactions. I don't care anymore.
Gonna pin this thread for now to prevent multiple posts
Trump has claimed to have Maduro as a hostage. Any news updates should be posted underneath this comment for visibility purposes.
Fuck Trump and fuck the White House for this.
I hate how everything goes America’s way so easily
For the most part, it doesn't. They can kill civilians but their coup attempts have failed and will fail. The US empire is crumbling and this is only going to speed it up.
Think they'll hold him for more than the 47hrs they held Chavez? I bet Maduro is out in 30, not because I think Maduro is more bad ass than Chavez just because I think usa is weaker than it was back then.
Don't forget that the empire is more unhinged now, so they could possibly even kill him as a show (but that would be the end of empire 100%)
Unlimited death to Yankeeland. Fucking shitheads.
My heart goes to Venezuela and its people. I hope this will end in Venezuela's ultimate victory and as fast as possible. Fuck the us, 2026 should be its final year.
No matter how many times I say this, it's not enough. Death to the United States!
🇻🇪The Venezuelan Defense Minister stated that Venezuela "will not negotiate, will not surrender, and will ultimately win".
Death to America
I've been extremely busy for this last year. I almost never even get a chance to long in. But logged in tonight just to say this:
DEATH TO AMERIKKKA. Glass that Fourth Reich shithole.
Peace will never be possible as long as the Great Satan exists.
Amerikkka is an existential threat to the world and must be dealt with accordingly.
Sorry for having no chill. I can't take this shit anymore.
Please everyone. Protest against this illegal action from the US.
Practice proper discipline. Don't share unsubstantiated news, don't believe unconfirmed reports. 10 Twitter accounts reposting the exact same video is not confirmation of events.
Don't trust the enemy to tell you what's happening, wait for confirmation from blue side. In a revolutionary situation we carry on as usual and wait for our side to give the go-ahead on how to react. Practice it.
Trump said the US will run Venezuela for the coming time. The US has today couped a country.
Thing is, will it? The Venezuelan state still seems to be running itself, with vice president and ministers still occupying their posts. Maduro himself isn't some embodiment of PSUV and the party can continue existing and governing without him.
Simply kidnapping Maduro without leaving behind boots on ground does very little besides intimidation. That can work for extracting concessions, but not for ruling a country. Either the rumoured second attack is coming soon or this might be negotiation tactics for full privatisation of the oil but leaving the government be.
Someone add the burning US flag emote to lemmygrad.
You can tell the US severely crossed some lines here by seeing 0 people supporting this. Like, I haven't seen a supportive message of these strikes anywhere. Instagram, Reddit, the news, nowhere.
even r/conservative on reddit, the vast majority seem to be against it. That might change though once the propaganda goes on overdrive e.g. Fox News.
Wasn't less than half of America supportive of the fishing boat murders? Not out of a sense of anti imperialism, but because they saw it as an obvious distraction from Epstein and prices.
I hope Venezuela becomes a graveyard for US soldiers.
This is vile, I want to apologize to the whole world except isn'treal. I am ashamed of my country.
There’s not a moment I’ve been politically literate that I haven’t been deeply disgusted about the nation I was arbitrary born in.
Mexico and Columbia's militaries should be having meetings ASAP.
Update: vice president Delcy Rodriguez demands proof of Maduro's life from US. I wonder if this is enough for Venezuela to try a retaliatory strike at the navy.
Embarrassing response from EU
What about the principle of not bombing other countries unilaterally
Kallas is a Nazi so this is unsurprising
Not surprising is what I would say, especially from that Estonian nazi lady.
Btw USA advised it's citizens to leave Russia because of "threats of terrorism" - like they did hours before the Crocus City Hall massacre last year. So empire would probably attempt another mass killing in Russia in a few days.
The imperialists probably tried killing Putin a few days back, on that attack at one of his houses, so now that that didn't work but that they 'took down' another one of Russia's allies they will feel emboldened to do whatever they want until someone stands up to them again.
fuck the us
My heart has dropped seeing some of the footage. I knew it was coming but had some hope we could continue down Nothing Ever Happensville. The US is such a deeply evil country.
🇻🇪WHAT DO WE KNOW SO FAR ABOUT THE EVENTS IN VENEZUELA?
🔺At 2:00 a.m. (local time in Venezuela), air strikes were reported against targets in Fuerte Tiuna (military headquarters), Cuartel de la Montaña (museum, Hugo Chávez mausoleum), La Carlota Airfield (downtown Caracas), Puerto de la Guaira, Higuerote Airport (east of Caracas), and the Navy Headquarters in La Guaira.
‼️There are no reports of damage or casualties so far.
Cuartel de la Montaña (museum, Hugo Chávez mausoleum),
fucking disgusting ghoul scum. How fucking pathetic.
And how fucking stupid? If they want to forment a civil war you don't do that by attacking a popular leader's tomb. All that is doing is making the people who already are on america's side happy.
Yeah, the US definitely just invaded Venezuela, and I’m ready for a riot.
Once again coming back: you know how bad the US is right now if pictures of Venezuala's refugees in the US over at r/news and r/pics get a bad rep lol. If two of the most astroturfed subs don't agree with this you're down bad.
My heart goes out to the people of Venezuela, may this be the final nail in the coffin of the American empire.
I have never been so fuckin’ sick of this country. This is repulsive.
It is repulsive but don't keep this to yourself. Please, help us and protest this criminal actions by the US empire.
It is time that we all unite.
I'll send a google doc of all the events in one bigass timeline. Unfortunately most of it is western live news, but it should have a good amount of information (it's in CET and my time stamps aren't gonna be perfect).
