This is problematic on every account. Primarily - the issue at hand is the legality of 'insider information' with in institutions. But the bigger issue is how shameful it is that people can't see the absolute horror beyond their little local ideologies or political beliefs. Maduro is one of the worst tyrants in the world, responsible for murder and imprisonment of any number of innocents and political dissidents, and the direct cause of millions of people displaced. Venezuela is truly a horrible place, the country has fallen apart, Chavizmo has no popular legitimacy, he lost the election and remained in power. It's impossible to speak of 'sovereignty' in that context. What happened to Maduro was a 'net positive' - it was in fact, a crude form of 'net justice'. It has nothing to do with Gaze, Syria, Iran etc.. And it has little to do with the cronyism of the Trump regime. It's fair to question legality of actions, but the fact that people could see Maduro is anything but a criminal in the most common sense, is beyond pale. That's the real issue here actually, the inability for people to contextualize complex issues especially in light of basic moral concerns. The violence against all hose people in Gaza is bad. Maduro is bad. Corruption in the White House is bad. Selective Justice is bad. Special forces placing bets on Polymarket is bad. They are different things. | ||
