On several occasions I have mentioned and shown you the reality of Venezuela, destroyed schools and hospitals, the lack of basic services, gasoline, in general the difficulties that people live there. There is an image that I have not shown you, it is that of indifferent, resigned people or those with Stockholm syndrome. I will start with that:
Since the mass migration occurred, there has been a debate between the Venezuelans who left and those who stayed. The reason: It is very simple, the Venezuelans who stayed do not seem to care about what happens in the country. Their concern is soap operas, going to the beach, buying rum, going to the movies, parties, among other things. The Venezuelans who stayed say, "Don't we have the right to have fun? The fact that we stayed means that we should be unhappy?"
My opinion: These are people who have normalized the tragedy. They fill up their car with gasoline whenever they can, and if there is no electricity, they complain. But on the weekend, they plan a trip to the beach. They don't have gas to cook, but they are thinking about buying clothes. I don't judge them, I don't criticize them. Everyone lives their life as best they can.
Here are some videos that make reality contradictory, because of this kind of videos some people abroad think that in Venezuela everything is "fine", even I have been asked "how is it that Venezuela is bad? if I always see videos on tiktok of people on yachts"
If you don't speak Spanish, I'll summarize what she's saying: She's advertising a jewelry store and says that there are "affordable prices" (remember that in Venezuela the official minimum wage is $3), so she made a purchase of 4 items for more than $2,000. He ends by saying "you already know what to ask Santa Clous for this Christmas"
Videos published on the official website of the Central University of Venezuela
At UCV we are inclusive
a flower arrangement worth 1120 dollars in Venezuela
50 and 40 dollars for a ham sandwich in Venezuela 2024 (Ham bread is a typical Christmas food in Venezuela)
Promotion for a hotel on Margarita Island for the end of the year: $500 per night, minimum 7 nights. (I recently posted about this island talking about the electricity crisis it is going through)
A 2 million dollar house
"How much do you think a cybertruck costs in Venezuela?" The only girl asking that question and then goes on to talk about the details and benefits.
With these videos I think you can understand why it is said that it is incongruent with the reality of the average Venezuelan. There are still more videos like these, promoting tourism as if nothing were happening.
While some people promote mediocre restaurants and hotels, on the other hand there are people who cannot access medical services, children who cannot go to school, people imprisoned and killed for opposing the government.
Political prisoner Osgual Alexander González Pérez has died in state custody, his family confirmed. During the first days of his imprisonment, Osgual showed symptoms of depression and in December he was hospitalized for severe abdominal pain. Osgual was detained in the Tocuyito prison, where the death of another inmate in the post-election period was recently confirmed.
Ibrahim López, an engineer and retired professor from ULA, survives by selling windmills, which he makes in the Plaza Bolívar in Mérida. They cost $1. He doesn't ask for money, he sells them for half a meal.
Imagine this situation:
Your mother and father are put in prison for going out to defend your future.
You are left in charge of your two little brothers for four months.
One day, while reading the news, you find out that your father died in prison.
You leave your little brothers, you go to identify the body but they don't give it to you.
You file a complaint on social media, and within hours, THE SAME GOVERNMENT THAT KIDNAPPED AND KILLED YOUR DAD DISAPPEARS YOU.
This is what is happening to Jesús Alejandro Álvarez, who is only 22 years old.
Mr. Jesús Álvarez was murdered, he was denied medical assistance in the Tocuyito prison, he did not have time to escape, but Leopoldo López was able to get to Colombia by land and even had a gym in Ramo Verde. The differences between a political prisoner and a "prisoner" politician.

The suicide of a worker in the basement of the Faculty of Architecture of the UCV is regrettable. This is proof of the serious mental problems that the average Venezuelan is going through, faced with a rather destroyed economy, where the currency is worthless and the salary is very poor.

When a Chavista son of a bitch talks to you about "treason against the country", tell them to go to Ávila, near Humboldt. Yes, they took away our tricolor to raise this SHIT.!!!

Residents of Petare wait in endless lines to get cooking gas.

An Argentine gendarme crossed into Venezuela to visit his wife and daughter and was detained by the Chavista regime.
The partner of the Argentine gendarme kidnapped in Venezuela says that he traveled to the country to meet with her and her son, after she returned months earlier for the health of her mother. • • This beautiful gesture of respect and recognition happened at the University of Zulia (LUZ), when some students gave a French teacher a mobile phone so that he could have better tools to teach them. It is both moving and sad that a professional cannot buy his own phone in Venezuela.
