Did you know Trump recently reclassified fentanyl as a WMD (yes, literally)? They're pretty proud of it: whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/202

Here, Kat Abughazaleh lays out this and other points you might need for arguing with people who think the ongoing coup in Venezuela is a noble fight against a dictatorship: youtube.com/watch?v=tXNOP6s7Q6E

@isagalaev Noble or not, most strongly prefer booting Maduro. I hope you don't want to end up in the support clique featuring Iran, Hezbollah, and the rest of the gang.

@dpwiz I'd rather not use the language like "support clique", as it is only useful to cover up atrocities. Like, many would paint anyone opposing Israel's genocide as a "Hamas supporter". I don't buy that.

I'm not discussing if Maduro was a dictator (he was). I'm saying that Trump had no right for a military coup. And that it will end up in pain, just like all the other past attempts to "install democracy" overseas.

@isagalaev The Panama aftermath looks net positive. I hope they did learn the lesson and it will be better this time.
