Social media is flooded with people celebrating the events in Venezuela and it is not abnormal to feel frustrated or even confused by this. This is part of the plan to legitimize these events. This is how consent is manufactured.

You are fighting the CIA and multibillion dollar tech companies shaping these narratives. We as communists are simply outnumbered in this, so it is normal to not reach the crowds they do.

Practice marxist discipline, read theory regarding these subjects. Books like the Jakarta Method or Manufacturing Consent are good starts. Read in on Venezuela. Head over to prolewiki to see what’s available, and don’t lose hope.

Edit: or, as comrades here said, read Inventing Reality instead of MC

    Yea… I came around the news during a big family trip (petit bourgeois family) and it’s infuriating how the supposedly “well read” petit bougies from my family just parrot american propaganda and cheer for whatever they do, and the worst part is that they started daydreaming about the US bombing Mexico 🥴

    Watching videos from allegedly Venezuelan diaspora dancing and celebrating as if we didn’t see Syrians doing exactly the same 1 year ago and their country going to shit.
