Appreciate you man. And I want to mention, since I said "it's hard for people who haven't lived there", that the fact that you haven't lived there or aren't from there doesn't matter at all. I hate how people just dismiss the opinions of non-venezuelans. I have opinions about Qatar and Israel and Australia. Don't need to be from a place to have an opinion about it.
Yea that's what I'm getting from most people.
I don't see it that way. It's hard for someone who hasn't live it to know just how fucked we were.
"Definitely bad" to "maybe bad, maybe good, maybe neutral, who knows" feel like an unbelievable improvement.
I remember the 2024 elections, every single Latino I know was SO excited to finally get maduro out, except the Venezuelans. We all knew. Every one of us had lost all hope.
Just 1 example of this, my friend who lives in Toronto
It's not an invasion, but still, the idea that you can't make a bold move like this because it might encourage Russia or China is misguided in my opinion. They don't listen to harsh language. They definitely do take heed of actions, and they will have just learnt an awful lot about how they shouldn't mess with the US. And with limited access to cheap Venezuelan oil, China will now find it much harder to invade Taiwan.

I don't know what Venezuelans will gain from this, freedom? It's just a change of ownership in my eyes.
Oil and other resources will be pillaged by USA while the country gets further destabilized. It's also a signal that now invasions are not a taboo anymore.
At the end of the day Venezuelans will still get fucked, this time by another pimp.
