    Sure, but that's not for the courts to decide. Plus, if the PSUV is going to continue to silence, censor and stonewall left wing critics of them then what else would they expect but for other parties to form? It's just par for the course.

      Maduro has been involved in left-wing politics for like 30 years now. He very obviously wants to bring Venezuela even further left (as did Chávez), but the country is in extreme economic/political crisis. Frankly, this is not the time to be splintering off to sabotage elections.

      It's like if during World War 2, factions of the left in the Soviet Union were trying to democratize their workplaces. It's just not the time.

        I don't disagree with you, I'm just saying that the PSUV reaping versus the PSUV sowing looks exactly like this. They need to stop stonewalling left critics of them from within their own party, otherwise this is bound to happen.

      Sure, but that’s not for the courts to decide.

      The courts are presenting a united front with the executive branch in defiance of disunity.

      It's a dark time for the country and it isn't easy to say you support dissent when so much of that dissent is influenced by foreign third parties. You can't have a loyal opposition that's getting its strings pulled.

      Left unity in the sense companero means imo is a crock, one the few things Bordiga was right about.
