Vuvuzela is a classic talking point for libs and right wingers alike as a failed socialist state. What’s your take on the truth of the situation?

For reference, my take is he is not a particularly great leader and his government has problems with corruption (just as many developed and undeveloped states do) but he is much preferred over whichever leader the U.S would like to install.

In terms of adherence to socialism and good leadership skills, I would say Bolivar was the great, Chavez was good, and Maduro is just about adequate in spite of the sanctions he’s faced.

I’m also trying to learn more about the topic, so any resources and differing opinions are of course welcome. I am by no means an expert.

I’m just going around the globe trying to unlock each nations history from scratch and get a nice holistic view. These are my earliest takes on the topic of Venezuela.

Thanks.
