ehhh after reading https://www.bfmtv.com/economie/international/elles-representaient-96-des-revenus-du-pays-avant-l-embargo-americain-les-gigantesques-reserves-de-petrole-du-venezuela-au-coeur-de-la-crise-entre-washington-et-caracas_AD-202601030187.html I think you’ve got credence but having thought about it I have to admit deep down it doesn’t really bother me

maybe it’s chopper style morality, the Venezuelan government was evil and awful, if the US takes it out and gets oil for itself so much the better, I hope the Venezuelan people benefit from not being under a dictatorship and it doesn’t turn into a Libyan style hellhole, I know María Corina Machado has been someone I have been cheering for so it does look like there is a credible stable government available:

In 2025, Machado was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize “for her tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela and for her struggle to achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy”.[11]

A bit like if the US invaded North Korea for oil, tbh I wouldn’t be crying for Kim Jong Un or protesting the US, sometimes it is what it is, a bit like Syria having multiple bad guys fighting each other, sometimes there’s no one to cheer for

I want the exact opposite for Ukraine and Greenland and anywhere else that are objectively good guys

hopefully at least by 2027 I can spell Venezuela without needing spell check

Here's my favorite part.
