Major shout out to all of the #meshcore nerds, I actually first heard about the attack on Venezuela over the public chat here in the PNW. Look at that, the mesh being a social service and all :)

The audio address from Vice President Rodríguez of Venezuala has been going viral on spanish speaking corners of the internet.
I notably have struggled to find American sources translating and communicating the statements from Venezuelan officials.
Now we all know, the US loves reckless regime change.
Internationally known Venelzualan rightwinger María Corina Machado sees a possible power vaccumm forming and wants to be helpful to US plans.
I swear, your leader gotta to EXTREMELY bad for a US led regieme change to be a -better- solution than pretty much anything else.
Who is Venezualan Opposition leader María Corina Machado? Bc we all know she about to be Trump's new favorite person.
Machado is well known for constantly saying she'd "bury socialism forever".
She says Margaret Thatcher is a major role model.
She won a noble peace prize(for some fing reason???) and said Trump should get one too.
She's spoke at EU far-right rally "Patriots for Europe".
She supports Israel 110%.

I post about these types of figures early and often bc we know how the US will use these types of people to manufacture consent.
The real trick of Machado is that she' holds a few "liberal values" by some US standards that some Americans may be fooled into believing she represents some sort of progressive support of US intervention.
Machado is ok with gay marriage & abortion only in case of rape or medical need. She likes public schools.
Still a fash tho.

It's clear this bullshit is going to trigger a lot of domestic protests in the US.
Seattle's two No War march starts in 30mins. We'll see how quickly the US protest mobilize this weekend.
This will likely bring together an extremely intersectional set of interest groups
