Only a 6 minute video and he managed to fit in:
- Chavez and Maduro betraying the revolution and not building socialism,
- Maduro outlawing “the actual communists”,
- Venezuela supposedly never took any serious steps to diversify its economy from oil,
- Russian and Chinese imperialism,
- Some big bourgeoisie are “puppets of China and Russia”,
- Russian imperialism in Ukraine,
- China debt-trapping Venezuela.
His conclusion: “we should not advocate for return of Maduro to power”.
He also managed to confuse the separate events of the US striking the fishing boats and the US pirating the oil tankers arriving at “these boats were supposedly transporting drugs while many were in reality obviously oil tankers going to Cuba” as if he didn’t pay any attention before and did some last-minute research before making the video.
Update: I had a brief interaction with Finbol. He not only views Venezuela and China as capitalist, but even Cuba as well, which he linked me to Maoist articles to argue why. He’s definitely gone off the deep end into ultraleftism. I initially was inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt but after realizing he even claims Cuba is capitalist I realize he has definitely too far gone.
It’s mindboggling. Even if China and all those countries are indeed the most capitalist countries in the world, they are not the ones actively engaged in an open global crusade against anything and anyone leftist to the point of invading countries left and right. It would be like arguing that the USSR should declare war on the Western capitalist powers during the middle of Operation Barbarossa, and that’s with granting the ultras such a comparison.
