RE: ADSactly World - Losing Freedom: Venezuela, During the Storm

in #freedom7 years ago

Name me an unbroken democracy?
So this Maduro fella was reportedly offering people thongs at the polling stations if they voted for him. A very ugly and obvious way of buying an election win but I can think of a few western elections where that has obviously happened. As well as outright illegal election spending.
Nevermind though, it gives a few diehard capitalist minions an opportunity to bleat about socialism and exercise their need to talk about Jeremy Corbyn, every hour of every day.

Sort:  

In my opinion as a Venezuelan who lives in Venezuela suffering all the problems from the economic to the social everything that you expose in this post is true and I would like to add that in this dictatorship does not come out with elections while all institutions have them kidnapped we are in hands of drug traffickers who will do anything to stay in power and kidnap our society little by little. What we urgently need is a military intervention that is the only thing that could save us

A very ugly and obvious way of buying an election

This was not necessarily for buying the election, because they have the system completely rigged. That was just to increase participation so the rejection towards them didn't look so obvious. Either way, after the last election this past Sunday, the international rejection got even bigger.

But there are still important things that need to happen to get this problem fixed.
