Do whatever you want, whatever.
They might hear like the typical Magasolanos, you know?
And you might hear all of these like perspectives that are really coming from not a place of
them being fascist or whatever, but coming from a trauma.
So I think that if you want to inform yourself, you need to develop the ability to think critically about what's going on and be able to understand who are these people and why do they have this perspective?
So they have this perspective, not because they were slave owners back in Venezuela, not because they are white.
Some of them are not white.
It's not because they are like pro fascism or they necessarily love the US.
But it's coming from a place of trauma.
And why do they have that trauma?
Well, they have that trauma because all of the abuses that were committed to the Venezuelan people were on behalf of this quote-unquote socialism, right?
So they were committed in the name of the left, whatever.
So that's why all of a sudden they claim to be very right-wing.
Although if you speak to them, you might ask them, well, what do you want to see in your country?
And you're like, well, this doesn't sound very pro-capitalism to me.
But I guess the ability to understand
these people instead of calling them like CIA agents, fascists, like they're stupid.
