  1. The Real News Network: Why many Venezuelans are still chavistas.
    Me, a Venezuelan in Venezuela that knows people from all social classes that call this one of the worst if not THE worst disaster of our history as an independent republic, that now lives as one of the poorest nations in the globe, and has created one of the biggest mass exodus seen in the history of the American Continent, breaking the lives of millions of people and devastating the fundamental pillars of our country as leaving us as a failed state:
    Press (X) to doubt.

  2. Venezuelans are pitifully doomed because People are as crazy as shit. They believe that the ideology gives them food. I can see how Americans are eating a fatty hamburger while they are watching this video.

  3. don't forget the 'system's' prez. t h e n , Obama, part of what has happened since Chavez' death.Capitalism's " choice in the Republicrat ' offerings to the us 'sheople'…!

  4. 🔊Venezuela's government is asistentialist  not socialist, there is free market there…. you all should look up the videos yourselves and stop listening to fake news corporate propaganda…

    🔊American Politicians Dems and Reps are Demagogues paid and supported by a corporatocracy

  5. It pains me to see how people all around the world are being punished through no fault of their own by a world bully called the US. Anyone with even half a brain can see that this crisis in Venezuela has absolutely nothing to do with the government's mismanagement as the US is claiming but rather the stifling economic sanctions imposed by the US. Those liars in DC are claiming that is is not the sanctions that are causing this hardship but yet refuse to remove them. If the sanctions are not stifling the economy, then why maintain them? This doesn't make any sense at all.

  6. Chavez had massive support because he gave housing, healthcare, education for the people forgotten by the last corporate governments that left behind that but he and his cabinet stole billions. How come you don't explain in 2003 chavez installed a exchange restriction so no one could get dollars without goverment approval and that created lack of production, inflation and corruption? Chavez was a fraud. Like a bad bernie Sanders. Chavez won democratically and become authoritarian and bribe the army , judges, and so on. Where is the poll for chavistas now? I bet not even 30% of the population

  7. In mark 00:33 subs are wrong, she's saying that "some people talk about some "Madurismo" which doesn't exist but Chavizmo only", she's refering to the Chavez Ideology, Maduro himself is a Chavizta too who preaches that ideology, but opposition in a foolish attempt to deminish and ridiculize Maduro talks about some "Madurismo" which I repeat, there's not such thing and Maduro has never mentioned it at all. In your subs it seems that the woman is saying that "we supported Chavez but we don't support Maduro that much" and that's wrong since is not what she said.

  8. As a Venezuelan living in Maracaibo, Zulia state I strongly wish that please inform yourself and talk to real venezuelans who had to leave their homes because of the consecuences that these corrupt politicians have bringed to my nation. The communist recipe in Venezuela is the same as the URSS with the small countries of the east, make the most part of the population dependant from government and kill the economic freedom of the people by misleading the management of the cities and states. My homewotn is ruined not by the US govt or the sanctions as this video tries to tell: IT'S ALL CAUSED BY CORRUPTION IN EVERY STAGE OF THE GOVERNMENT.

    Venezuela needs the US support to restore the democracy and the well management of the most important industries such as Energy generation, Oil&Gas and Food production. The US have always been the best customer of my country for Oil, that's an undeniable truth, the lefties have a never-ending story about the US interest in the natural resources of this country… But forgot to say that China and Russia are after the same resources, with the exception that they don't care about the environment. Just look how they treat their own environment and sources of natural resources in their respective countries. Right now Chineses companys are destroying A LOT of the amazonas forest and taking out TONS of Gold, GOD THEY'RE WORST THAN THE GARIMPEIROS. Amazonas state is almost totally controlled by the military and the mobs surrounding the gold business. The green lung of the earth is being slowly killed and Nicolas Maduro's shtty government doesn't care, they're just making them richier every day and my people suffers

  9. People of Venezuela, and LatinAmerica, keep on pushing. Enough of the oligarch class not understanding they exist because of the people, and therefore the people have the right to the decency of living. The elite needs to cave in or simply deal with the fact that the people won't give up the movement. Don't give up as we ensure we remove Washington, DC, England, and Israel out of land of the Latinos. The elite class needs to stop selling our resources and well-being of the people to the international fortune hunters. The removal of Washington, DC is the beginning of the ending corruption in LatinAmerica, we will get rid of the sell-outs!

  10. I admire what Chavez accomplished. After seeing how the right-wing opposition behaved during the embassy siege in DC, I can see why these people don't want to go back to the way things were before Chavez. Venezuela, probably more than most Latin-American countries is a very stratified society. Criollos, who are mostly white descendants of Europeans, were at the top of the socioeconomic pyramid. They owned most of the country's wealth and means of production. Poorer, less white Venezuelans, had little or no access to education, healthcare, and political power. The revolution changed all that. The people were finally empowered, the government invested in social services which greatly benefited the lower classes. Of course the elites resent this. They just can't get over the fact that they no longer rule, like a nobility over the common people.

    What the US is doing in Venezuela is a crime. They are behaving like thugs who want to impose their will on an independent country who doesn't want to be beholden to US banks and who wants the profits from their oil to benefit all Venezuelans, not just the rich ones. They are willing to break international law in the most brazen way by imposing their puppet Guaido, who doesn't have the support of the majority of Venezuelans. It is shameful. Instead of winning the friendship of the Venezuelan people by helping them out of the crisis, they are tightening the screws and making life very difficult for these hard working people whose only crime is that they want to be free and independent of US hegemony.

  11. Cubans are the influence of this Country they know it just listen to the way they talk in Spanish everyone knows that they are not Venezuelan they’re speaking for Nicholas modulo
    Venezuelan Are not speaking on this topic

  12. Will…becuase those people still have ROOFs over thier head…verse
    There's MORE PEOPLE ON WELFARE in the USA than the entire population of Venezuela.
    Plus MILLIONS MORE that's HOMELESS and FORGOTTEN…
    They dont get Jack shiet….or have any medical benefits.
    or surf the FFFFken Youtube…..

    The ones that have Medical Insurance…dont get Medical care, either.
    They just get TAXED SCAM to death….Work like SLAVES in a Plantation.
    Some have full time jobs or even multiple jobs…And are still HOMELESS.

    Peloci and Fienstien had been in office for almost 50 years….FFS
    If tha'ts not a DICTATORSHIP…I dunn know what is….

  13. The people of Venezuela also elected a National Assembly by a "universal. direct, personal and secret" vote partly by direct election in state-based voting districts, and party on a state-based party-list proportional representation system. From the 2010-2015 period, they had 165 seats, and they go for 5 years. The Majority leader since January has been Juan Guaido. So he wasn't just a guy Trump dug up to install for Venezuelan oil. They had a special 2017 election that was condemned by over 40 mostly Latin American and Western States to draft a new constitution. Because of the strife between the ruling incumbent party the opposition boycotted the election a totally dumb idea I think. The incumbent Great Patriotic Pole dominated by the Socialist Party of Venezuela won almost all the seats by default. Pay attention to the details this is the death of democracy and just because you can find some people that received benefits from the government look at the 3 million that have left the country and the people that are starving. Sure you say it's because of the U.S wanting their oil I don't believe it. The oil production of Venezuela has dropped over the last 20 years because of the government taking the means of producing the oil from the companies that were producing it firing 20,000 workers and putting in replacements that supported the government. The stuff they need is wearing out and nobody to fix it.

  14. The white AKA Esau empires are professionals !
    They knows how to staves,kills,turns the so-called Spanish,blacks, Natives Americans aka the thru tribes of Israel AKA Yahuah people into dirt !
    Haiti is a good example.

  15. I just learned of another reason why Venezuela is being targeted for regime change. It is one of only seven countries worldwide that does not allow the growth or import of GMOs which are manufactured by companies such as Monsanto.

  16. "Why Many Venezuelans Are Still Chavistas" ?
    The answer is: – Because they can see that the alternative would be the same, what the USA have done to Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya or Syria.

  17. This is what a democracy is supposed to do … And the US is hurting these very people in the name of … Democracy. What a farce!

  18. People from venezuela appreciate what was done for them. before chavez they had nada. how in hell do we want to turn them against their angels who helped them? they will allways be chavistas .U go………….Maduro has true friends….not fake friends!
