Google doesn't return anything for the "Langley Center for Democracy Studies", the purported source of this map.

I think that Bolivia is more of a flawed democracy than a full democracy? Bolivia isn't yet socialist, and elements of the far-right government are still in power.

Edit: Same for Venezuela

[-] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

I don't know about Bolivia, but Venezuela ironically has zero pretensions of being a socialist country; there are no mentions of Marx or Marxism in their constitution. It's just that they pissed off the US really hard by daring to be a sucdem country while operation condor was in full effect and while they wanted to force neoliberalism into latin america. They also reverted the US backed coup almost instantly.

Hugo Chavez and Maduro have praised Marxism and Marx IIRC, but they've also both said I think that they aren't absolutely committed to Marxism, but that socialism is a long-term goal.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

By "socialism" they mean something very different from what marxists mean. This isnt a dig at them or anything, but Venezuela inst really a communist project like China, the USSR or even Chile under Allende.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I understand what you are getting at, but I don't think Venezuela eschews Marxism or class struggle, at least.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Pretty much but this is to be expected with government run by Democratic Socialists. They still believe in electoralism and dealing with the far-right in your government is par the course for them.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Despite their pronouncements, I'm not sure if Chavez or Maduro actually believe in Democratic Socialism, or that their productive and militarized forces aren't sufficient enough to challenge the Venezuelan bourgeoisie and criminal elements.

I have some notes:

  • What's up with Pakistan and Syria getting higher rankings than Iran or India?
  • Iraq more democratic than the US: mission-accomplished-1 mission-accomplished-2
  • Marking Taiwan as a full democracy was a nice touch.

I am from Azerbaijan and they claim my country is a hybrid regime. Motherfucker hybrid of what? a dictator and an absolutist??? I firmly believe western north korea fans are actually mentally unstable in the head. What is wrong with you people? Did you not learn from Soviet Union? Human greed is unstoppable

That's it guys, shut down lemmygrad. Human greed is unstoppable. Lenin was wrong. We are not right in the head.
