Maduro isn't a socialist, Chavists aren't socialists and he's openly a Chavist (i.e. a follower in the tradition of Hugo Chavez, who was a great progressive but not really a socialist).
I don't give a shit what the Carter Center has to say about any of America's enemies, and they provide no means to evaluate the substance of the claim by "experts from the UN" (which is different from a report by the UN or an official committee of the UN).
And, again, Maduro did not appoint the judges; he doesn't even have the power to.
Maybe most pertinently: Do you not remember last election cycle, when all the neoliberal news outlets were joined together in their outrage over the NED and friends saying Maduro stole the election, only for that claim to "just turn out" to be pulled from thin air? Do we need to do this every six years when a US-backed reactionary loses?

Maybe it's just me but it seems the synchronization of public opinion on reddit / lemmy with Empire seems to be getting worse. (EDIT: It seems to be getting more "convincing")
Like there was some opposition from the "progressives" and "leftists" about the Juan Guaidó sham and you could argue about it without getting downvoted into oblivion, but now very few dare to talk about the latest attempt to capture Venezuela's oil.

Lemmy.world is crazy. It's almost the same downvote "philosophy" than Redfit and the instance has a huge userbase.
