The outcome of the polls will either lead to a seismic shift in politics or extend by six more years the policies that caused the world’s worst peacetime economic collapse.

“The Venezuelans and the entire world know what happened,” opposition candidate Edmundo González said in his first remarks.

Opposition leader Maria Corina Machado said the margin of González’s victory was “overwhelming” based on voting tallies it had received from campaign representatives from about 40% of ballot boxes nationwide.

    This sht literally happens everywhere though. A lot of people here seem to echo the same thing. X is bad ideology and then they give examples of corruption and not the ideology failing. I feel like every ideology would fall to corruption. Maybe some are more resistant but non seem immune.

      You are right about this, but then there are people on social media who support these governments just because they are “left-wing” and this only makes things worse instead of diminishing them.
