25 years of socialism in Venezuela. Hopefully that ends tomorrow after the elections.

or they just sucked at implementing socialism, besides the fact that it's a country that has been under the severest sanctions and constant coup attempts orchestrated by the  most  powerful country in the world

Power consolidation=evil.

i've never been to venezuela, so can't comment on that

my og cast was more about challenging the belief that the socioeconomic circumstances of a country can all just be attributed to the political system it's under

I dunno, Chavez did it pretty well overall. I actually visited the country, and he implemented great communal practices and upskill initiatives in poor neighborhoods. Despite assassination & coup attempts, despite US-funded  paramilitia, they were still doing OKish until he was gone. Maduro had the same challenges but he played into US's hands a lot with his authoritarian practices IMHO.

Cooperatives and ownership.

Calling the regime "socialist" conflates very different things - economic ideology and state governance. A strongman government that suppresses dissent with extrajudicial violence is just that no matter what economic ideology it brands itself with. Plenty of examples of fascist pro-US regimes in Lat Am history.

btw whos this maria gal, another lil coup?
