    I don't know much about BadEmpanda, but I'm curious what his angle is here? Reading these articles it's obvious there's why conflict here and while it certainly seems fair to criticize Maduro these tweets are just playing up the AES==authoritarian angle for no obviously apparent reason.

      I'm seeing way too much of this succ dem streamer on Hexbear. Yeah the guy hates the guys we hate but he's really the sort of guy we should hate. Just an awful clout shark with no social skills.

        I got into it with him once on the chapo sub in 2019 over whether the MAS and surrounding movement in Bolivia was ready to fight a PPW.

        He's an asshole, but he's a principled leftist asshole.

            I thought the Bolivian people were prepared to shrug off the coup government if it came to it. He thought that was an overoptimistic assessment.

      He's a guy who says things before he knows them.

      Can't say for sure if this is one of those times, because I am a guy who says things after he knows them.
