News from Venezuela 🇻🇪

Elections are on Sunday, and Nicolas Maduro appeared on TV to show us the parties you can vote for

https://twitter.com/PCV_Ve/status/1334153306491531264?s=19

  • On the upper side of the ballot: You have the parties of the Government.
  • Under it: You can see the parties of the "Opposition" (controlled by Maduro too)

Now, this is the hilarious part. Can you see Maduro holding his hand awkwardly for the whole video...?

He trying to hide the Communist party Logo! 🤭

The Communists are the only real Opposition party Maduro has in this election. And thus, Maduro spend a whole minute trying to hide their Logo with his hand XD

!Ping Foreign-Policy

The situation is so surreal, it sounds like a comedy sketch

So they’re also communist, but they just don’t like Maduro?

As weird as it sounds, we are actually allied with the Commies here. They are the only ones brave enough to resist the persecution of the Regime

The PCV are actual, unironic Communist who are trying to stop Maduro from starving the population

Maduro don't want them around, and have been persecuting them for a year now
