And if he had put the money into education, medicine and grass roots development, he would now be a hero and a legend. People really would have loved him and the world would have admired him.

Oh, quite the contrary. What matters most is bending over to USA, then you can do literally whatever and still be presented as a good guy. Otherwise you're evil no matter what. The welfare of people is NEVER EVER considered.

[@kishascape]

Nah because these various "ism" authoritarian governments never work.

[@travelertuber9487]

PJ and his cabinet did all of that! He left disapointed in order to avoid violence and bloodshed. He was anti-communist but neither did bow to USA. This is cynical mediocre propaganda!

[@kelkilkat]

So very true

[@gabrielespinoza8064]

In fact he did it... he built the university city of Caracas and ended illiteracy in the country by 52%

The magnificent masterpiece of the arquitect Carlos Raul Villanueva,😅 the Central University of Venezuela, only few blocks ahead the militar complex visited by you in Caracas, was declared in 2000 by UNESCO as Cultural Patrimony of the Humanity.

[@elfacisco]

great script, there's no more journalists like this anymore 🙄😒👏👏👏

[@LagrangePoint0]

He's as bullshitter as any other "journalist" of today, so nothing has changed. Here's a short documentary debunking all the BS spouted by this bbc "journalist": kzbin.info/www/bejne/foCxq3mZrtVpirs and also you can hear it from the man himself: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a2SwXnehecRmrJY
