  • For me, analyzing the things I like and talking about them has helped me appreciate them and enjoy them even more. I really love writing, so I got into the habit of writing about it on my Mastodon account, for no one in particular other than myself.

    However, what has changed my life for the better the most was overcoming my cringe and starting to write and publish my first fan fiction, which had been in my head for years. It has given me a sense of purpose and motivation that are uniquely mine and have helped me regain confidence in my abilities, because on the one hand, I really like what I write, and on the other, a lot of people seem to like it too!


    1. From Maduro’s part. They are deeply incompetent.

    2. The Oil is a curse. It could be a blessing if people knew how to use it. Chavez thought he knew, he was wrong. The Saudi’s know. They have a lot of skeletons in their closet, yet it seems like receiving their money is not big problem. Branding.

    Bukele can rule over El Salvador as he please because he is a The Gang Buster. Branding.

    Peru can have as many presidents as they like without affecting the economy cuz… well, they are all corrupt, “but least they aren’t communist”. Branding


  • From a Venezuelan living in Venezuela, in short: he wasn’t Chavez.

    Long answer: Chávez had the political savvy to make a name and reputation for himself that could protect him despite criticism from hegemonic states. Maduro was never able to hold a candle to him, which is why he declined in popularity despite “technically” perpetuating what Chávez had built.

    “But the drugs! But the human rights!” Center-right politicians in the region have faced similar (more verifiable) accusations, yet none have received the same level of global criticism as Chávez or Maduro.

    “But democracy!” Peru has had five presidents in less than two years, and no one says anything. Bukele intends to remain in power in El Salvador for life, and no one says anything.

    It’s not an ideological or moral issue, It’s Branding.
