    Getting information about any country the US has an adversarial relationship with from US media makes you less informed. PBS recently aired a segment that had a Maduro official saying that people who don't vote for Maduro won't eat, implying the government would withhold food from non Maduro voters. The comment, in context, was the official saying that Women say, if you don't vote, you don't eat. What PBS didn't mention, probably out of ignorance of Venezuelan culture, is that eating doesn't only mean consuming food, it also means to fornicate. If you don't vote, you don't fuck is what PBS was airing, which is kind of an own.
