I know I’ve expressed dislike for the guy in the past, but seriously? I thought for even something like this, he would at least have a good take on it.
badempanada is annoying but some of the stuff he brought up is legitimately suspicious. This election was very likely rigged
Having said that, I don’t really care if maduro rigged the election. Election rigging can be perfectly fine in some cases and this might be one of those
Not gonna watch the video because I can’t stand this kind of youtuber. What points did he bring up? Everything I’ve seen just points the allegations from the far right to be bunk and the only evidence they have is from a firm that is definitely a State Dep cutout.
Started watching but didn’t finish it because at like 3 minutes he outright says “I’m not going to cite anything because the people who support Maduro wouldn’t believe any sources anyway”. So nothing. He claims that “if you saw the videos venezuelans are being sent from family still in venezuela” you would agree with them. Which, okay, maybe post one then?
stuff like pre-election polling showing clear opposition victory. And government still refusing to release raw vote counts, which seems to be highly irregular
The polls that gave the election to Gonzalez were from Edison which is a State Dept cutout, I don’t know why they haven’t released the vote counts yet but I’m sure it will all come about eventually. Ultimately, they don’t owe the US anything of course, and it’s not like the election was close either.
