    They’re gonna pick Juan Guaidó up from Miami and airdrop him in Caracas for a second round.

      Since “Elect” apparently breaks rule one for some reason, I’ll elaborate in a civil and nice way.

      Funny meme and I get the point of it. However it’s a stretch to say Maduro was elected when there’s so many errors in the voting process. :)

      Venezuelans elected Maduro, while the US wanted Gonzalez to win. The margins are close enough that the US is crying foul.

        Okay fair enough, but it’s not only the US that seems yo think he’s not the elected president. Are there some more serious organisations who thinks one way or the other? I mean it’s so low hanging fruit bashing the USA :-p

          We will see. The known anti-Venezuela countries have condemned the election, but right now there isn’t enough proof of fraud.

    The outrage is actually for the opposite reason: he wasn’t elected.

    But yes, it is a ridiculous double standard regardless.

        Funny how the people are rioting in the streets and you’re pretending that everything is okay. Stupid fuck8ng first world socialists who never experienced the absokute scourge that is a socialist dictatorship talking down to the people who actually suffer from your high horses of privilege and misinformation.

          I literally grew up in USSR, but go on tell me more about these socialist dictatorships. Meanwhile, don’t have to look further than burgerland to see people rioting on the streets being burtally put down by the regime’s security forces. The sheer imbecility on display is truly astounding.

            You’re obviously lying. Every single person I have ever met who grew up in the USSR - and they number in the hundreds - absolutely hates communism and authoritarianism. It’s only rich, sheltered idiots who never worked a day in their life and live on mommy and daddy’s credit cards like you who defend communism.

              Ah yes, me having grown up in USSR and not having dumb fuck views obviously means I must be lying. Figures that you’d be the sort of imbecile who doesn’t understand the concept of selection bias. The fact that you hang out with the same kinds of dipshits like yourself isn’t exactly a surprise. Here’s a dose of reality for you to seethe and cope over.

              75% of Russians have expressed increasingly positive opinions about the Soviet Union over the years. Only a small portion of those surveyed said they had negative associations with the Soviet Union. The economic deficit, long lines and coupons were named by 4% of respondents each, while the Iron Curtain, economic stagnation and political repressions were named by 1% each, the Levada Center said.

              And here’s another poll showing that most people think the Soviet economic system was more correct

              And of course, it’s not just in Russia either:

              • A remarkable 72% of Hungarians say that most people in their country are actually worse off today economically than they were under communism. Only 8% say most people in Hungary are better off, and 16% say things are about the same. In no other Central or Eastern European country surveyed did so many believe that economic life is worse now than during the communist era. This is the result of almost universal displeasure with the economy. Fully 94% describe the country’s economy as bad, the highest level of economic discontent in the hard hit region of Central and Eastern Europe. Just 46% of Hungarians approve of their country’s switch from a state-controlled economy to a market economy; 42% disapprove of the move away from communism. The public is even more negative toward Hungary’s integration into Europe; 71% say their country has been weakened by the process.

              • The most incredible result was registered in a July 2010 IRES (Romanian Institute for Evaluation and Strategy) poll, according to which 41% of the respondents would have voted for Ceausescu, had he run for the position of president. And 63% of the survey participants said their life was better during communism, while only 23% attested that their life was worse then. Some 68% declared that communism was a good idea, just one that had been poorly applied.

              • Glorification of the German Democratic Republic is on the rise two decades after the Berlin Wall fell. Young people and the better off are among those rebuffing criticism of East Germany as an “illegitimate state.” In a new poll, more than half of former eastern Germans defend the GDR.

              • A poll shows that as many as 81 per cent of Serbians believe they lived best in the former Yugoslavia -“during the time of socialism”. The survey focused on the respondents’ views on the transition “from socialism to capitalism”, and a clear majority said they trusted social institutions the most during the rule of Yugoslav communist president Josip Broz Tito. The standard of living during Tito’s rule from the Second World War to the 1980s was also assessed as best, whereas the Milosevic decade of the 1990s, and the subsequent decade since the fall of his regime are seen as “more or less the same”. 45 percent said they trusted social institutions most under communism with 23 percent choosing the 2001-2003 period when Zoran Djinđic was prime minister. Only 19 per cent selected present-day institutions.

              You’re an utter clown.
