 TL;DR 

what's going in venezuela rn?

happened to come across some rather raunchy content on my timeline 
 Political election. Longstanding leader that won’t leave office despite mass community call too. Objectively rigged election 
 oh jesus...

thank you for the info 
 Dictator fucked with elections; prevented people from voting.  People rioting, conflicts with military/police escalating. 
 Their government decided that the people’s vote didn’t matter as much as their tyrants desire to stay in power. 
 The people are rejecting what appears to be a fraudulent re-election of Maduro. 
 Bad stuff to good people.

@Malos10 has been bravely documenting the protests and government abuse. 
 yeah, think it might've been some of his content that i saw

unfathomable honestly 
 It's infuriating that this isn't even making the evening news. no segments, no coverage. It's crazy. 
 Maduro committed election fraud. He actually lost in the voting polls to another candidate but cheated… and it seems like Venezuelans are done with his shit. 
 Is it confirmed that he cheated? If so, how did he even cheat?

+ why would the police forces reside with the cheating dictator 
 The vote counts were being broadcasted and he was doing poorly. Then all of sudden the entity that ratifies the winner announced he won. Everyone and their mother knew what had happened. Maduro is a dictator and he won’t let go of the power.

The police and military follow rank and have benefited from Maduro, but some are turning and taking their uniform off. 
 That’s cute. This is to assume the police give a shit. Money is all that matters to these folks at the end of the day. The fiat world baby.
