Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

PSA: it's okay to feel overwhelmed. You are fighting a multi billion dollar propaganda machine. (lemmygrad.ml)

Social media is flooded with people celebrating the events in Venezuela and it is not abnormal to feel frustrated or even confused by this. This is part of the plan to legitimize these events. This is how consent is manufactured.

You are fighting the CIA and multibillion dollar tech companies shaping these narratives. We as communists are simply outnumbered in this, so it is normal to not reach the crowds they do.

Practice marxist discipline, read theory regarding these subjects. Books like the Jakarta Method or Manufacturing Consent are good starts. Read in on Venezuela. Head over to prolewiki to see what's available, and don't lose hope.

Edit: or, as comrades here said, read Inventing Reality instead of MC

Why would venezuelans revolt against participative democracy ? These accusations of dictatorship can't apply for once.

(note that a numeric identity emitted by our governments, as is currently being applied all over the western world, will obviously not protect us from the astroturfing of our government/allies, they'll use it to fight "extremism")
