another nobody talking about the coup
more non coupy things
Let me see if I get this right (not about the coup but another point brought up in this thread):
- the leader of a South American country, having run up against presidential term limits, puts the question to the people about said term limits in a referendum but loses. He says he will accept this, but then goes to court arguing his first term didn't count because it was under a different constitution. He wins and is allowed to run again but after the election the result counting stops unexpectedly then resumes 24 hours later and he is declared the winner.
-my initial questioning of the legitimacy of said election was apparently due to a vast conspiracy by western (and US in particular) news coverage conspiring to work against that president and not all of the above.
weird you forgot the part where the president agreed to new elections after the OAS came out with their recommendation, but was then deposed by the military anyway, and that the new self-declared president gave the military permission to murder protesters. Why did you forget that part?
also, the counting was completely standard. The quick count is not the official result and Morales’s numbers improved as rural areas reported; exactly as they were expected to.
Remember, Venezuela is the dictatorship, because reasons.

"Totes not a coup and we support democracy and free speech," says the people arresting their political opposition and murdering citizens for their speech.

Are you saying that Supreme Courts should not be allowed to make critical decisions about Presidential elections?
Again, my point, and only point, is that with everything that I mentioned, it shouldn't be surprising if one were to believe that there was a problem with the election. I was responding to the feeling I had that those critical of the news coverage were also being a bit critical of those who believed that coverage to be truthful and accurate, again due to the many problems and changes that occurred before the election.

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if all those Lithium reserves are now for sale to the highest bidder.It's a standard right wing coup with supporting propaganda campaign. It's one of Uncle Sam's traditional favorites. It'll be a capitalist paradise before you know it. For the capitalists, of course.

Weird that the OP is nowhere to be seen. He's probably painting the ceiling of his bedroom reading about all these indigenous people getting murdered.
Has this OP ever admitted he was wrong despite being proven such on a regular basis?Venezuela is a dictatorship, but this one appears to be one as well.
Looks like AOC was right in calling this a coup. I wonder if the OP will return to admit she was right and he was wrong?
