Versus a civil war, this would be a much more peaceful approach.

He's doing things based on his memories. 80s were his happy time. He went in for oil but even the oil companies want little to do with that - we're past peak oil and it'll cost a fortune to get the oil fields producing an amount that's profitable and that will also have a big affect on demand cost (i.e. cost will go down so there's no point in extraction)
Former oil worker and from a family of oil workers. Been through enough cycles to know what to expect.
Trump is a toddler who doesn't understand simple business ideas anymore, if he ever did. Machado is playing him because she knows he only listens to praise from the last person he talked to. He's very simple and old.
Reconstruction was never truly complete and allowed for a full range of "compromises". The attitude and feelings remained the same.
Quite sad that 175 years later and the arguments have changed very little.
Wonder what he's going to do with his FIFA Peace Prize now. Omg, what a timeline we're on. I feel for the historians having to record this. It's so pathetic.
She can "donate" it but she can't give it away. The decision by the Nobel award committee is final. She's playing him and good on her for doing so.
Look at it from her side. She can "give" this narcissistic her award (which she actually can't) and the guy who holds the strings will be pleased and she gets her country back, peacefully.
That's a great deal for her and Venezuela overall. She is playing him. It's tactful and tactical. And he's a pathetic toddler who only responds to praise and participation awards - what a sad sad sad person to have as leader. I hope MAGA sees how pathetic this is but I know they won't.
Nothing more un-Christian than US-style Christianity
Likewise. If we can't treat our enemies with the humanity we would want treated to us then we're not much better than they are. Also aware that making martyrs is never a wise idea.
He could easily be stripped of all possessions and wealth and thrown in prison or exiled till they die a slow meaningless death. That's the best way to deal with them.
Corporate trolls, state-sponsored trolls, agents and repost bots are at least 60% of the users and much more in some active subs like askreddit and any news subreddit (especially if critiquing genocide or war-raged areas). It's just sad and so obvious.
Ummm... You should see it as another country and foreign isn't a bad word. You can be neighbours and friends but you are not the same.
Much like Australians and Kiwis aren't the same. Cousins, yes. Besties, yes. But not the same. And it's disrespectful to think you are. Both have their own identities and that's a good thing.
Stubby little finger on his stubby little hand. 🍄
That is a risk, but she's got to try something. Doing nothing is how the US got where it is now.
