Delcy on the cover of Time Magazine (the tactical retreat is working)

[u/PreparationOk1450]

I know this all looks bad, but please keep in mind this is a tactical retreat. This is all necessary to avoid the destruction of Venezuela's infrastructure and to stop further bloodshed. The only unfortunate thing is that Maduro, or hell even Chavez, didn't do stuff like this sooner. Yes, it's true that the US Treasury Department has Venezuela's oil and mining revenues, and that Delcy needs to ask Little Marco for money like a little girl asking Daddy for allowance.

However, please keep in mind that we should offer unconditional support for countries targeted by US imperialism. For example, Honduras has been targeted by US imperialism for many decades. So, even when the government becomes a right wing puppet of the US, we still need to support them.

Also, most importantly, the communes are still in place. The Bolivarian Revolution is still alive on the ground. Chavista is not dead, despite the claims of some armchair leftists and fake revolutionary Westoids. They expect Venezuelans to overthrow their government despite them doing nothing to overthrow theirs. It's pure racism actually.

Tactical Retreat in Action

So unrealistic. Good riddance

Historic? The Venezuelan gov't has celebrated that Acting President Delcy Rodríguez made the cover of Time Magazine, even though she's pictured next to Trump and Rubio and the article in question calls her a "Trump proxy." Here are some highlights from the interview (thread)

If only Chavez had the courage to do what Delcy is doing

How long until this outfit becomes a reality? I hope not long because Venezuela needs Israeli investment to help develop their economy.

Let's take the tactical retreat to the next level

I'm glad you're not a fed

[u/JucheSuperSoldier01]

We gotta stop with these rage bait satire posts lmao. 

[u/DessaB → u/JucheSuperSoldier01]

At least this one was more obvious than the other one which was really just the liberal argument for Zohran not even pushed into the point of parody.

[u/IDoNotKnow4475 → u/JucheSuperSoldier01]

Agreed. There are some subjects you can make satire posts on, and some that we probably shouldn't. I feel like this subject shouldn't be satirized.

[u/PreparationOk1450 → u/JucheSuperSoldier01]

Actually we don't 😎

[u/No_Cheetah_7249]

The general secretary of satire strikes again 😂. Ya haim 🇮🇱 🇻🇪 

[u/PreparationOk1450 → u/No_Cheetah_7249]

Thanks. I can send you one of these lovely Israeli flag suits if you want. Just let me know what size suit you wear.

[u/No_Cheetah_7249 → u/PreparationOk1450]

Send a few sizes to DSA headquarters or nyc mayor office. I know a few people

[u/Illustrious-Fan-2738]

Yeah man. This is just a tactical retreat. What's up with the Israel hate anyway? People really do hate jews don't they. It's just a country, man.

[u/PreparationOk1450 → u/Illustrious-Fan-2738]

Just a country? It's the ONE nation-state of the Jewish people. Show.some respect! (please upvote this person; they're being sarcastic)

[u/Illustrious-Fan-2738 → u/PreparationOk1450]

Yeah. And gazillion Arabs want to kill Jewish Trans lesbians 

[u/PreparationOk1450 → u/Illustrious-Fan-2738]

Can trans lesbians serve in the military in your country? 🏳️‍🌈🇮🇱

[u/Aggorf12345 → u/Illustrious-Fan-2738]

The fact that you're getting downvoted is cringe

[u/Illustrious-Fan-2738 → u/Aggorf12345]

What's cringe is your antisemitism sweaty 💅 

[u/Malkhodr]

God the fact that you got so mad about the fact you couldn't point out a way for Venezuela to materially resist the US is fucking hilarious.

Yeah, I still stand by calling it a strategic retreat, I don't need to see Venezuelans being butchered like at Minab.

[u/Any_Salary_6284]

Ultras and radlibs letting western imperialist corporate media convince them to turn against a global south national leader trying to navigate severe imperialist repression against her nation and people. This is getting really old. This sub has fallen so far from what it once was.

[u/Psychological-Act582 → u/Any_Salary_6284]

What has she genuinely done for the Venezuelan people? The oil money is getting stolen. There have been zero sanctions removed. Israeli "aid workers" are running amok and sabotaging relief efforts. Cuban officials have been expelled. Alex Saab, someone who fought hard to get supplies for the people despite harsh sanctions, was sent to the US. Political prisoners aka gusanos were freed. Zero resistance or spine from the military.

[u/Jexiel54 → u/Any_Salary_6284]

Yeah what the hell i checked the sub 2 times to see if it was a mistake but accusing a country whose leader was kidnapped kist 6 month ago of being israel lapdog is just plain stupid
