They want you to think what's happening in Venezuela is about "authoritarianism". It's not.

It's about who ultimately controls more than $14 trillion in mineral resources - a national government or Western globalist bankster elites?

It's about which geopolitical bloc will gain access and influence over these resources - the Western global financial empire or the emerging BRICS trading system?

What's happening in Venezuela is part of a broader historical struggle between national movements and a system that condemns them to perpetual underdevelopment as cheap exporters to Western oligarch cartels like Blackrock and ExxonMobil.

"Democracy" and "authoritarianism" are slogans that Western gangsters use as cudgels whenever their material interests are threatened.

If you're buying what Elon Musk is selling, you might as well believe in Santa Claus.

What's happening in Venezuela is because Maduro's election authority does not want to release the results of the elections.

Any other conspiranoid theories go down the drain when one can easily verify the official amounts exported of this wealth buried in the soil is NOT going to pensions, education nor infrastructure.
