 What's happening in Venezuela is beyond words. 

Indeed, this situation has persisted since Hugo Chavez's leadership, but it's notable that the current government has shed any inhibitions about openly displaying its true nature.

And highlights well why technologies like Nostr is a must. And messengers like Jami, Simplex or even Matrix to have some measure of privacy.

Defend the right to stand up for yourself and the freedom to critique politicians with your life.

No government must ever be trusted. They are just managers, not saviors.
