I don’t find them suspect. I just find them interesting, Guy Who Left Venezuela And Volunteers His Opinions Without Explaining them (Reminds me of Boomer Who Moved Out Of The Soviet Bloc In 1970 And Invariably Shows Up Tell You That Communism Can Never Work Without Explaining Every Time A Progressive Voices Support For Social Politics On The Internet… I do wish he had a more concise name).
In all seriousness I’m a little touchey on this subject too. I have a few friends in Venezuela who’s lives are hell, not for local politics but for American sanctions and war threats over the past decade. They’re committed to their families. I don’t really know what I’m going to do if my government ends up hurting them.

Let me guess, you have black friends too?
OH, shoot. Just noticed your instance. I have no desire to argue with hateful tankies. Bye.
