Today I learned 343 is based in Venezuela... so that's why Microsoft gave them Halo, they'd work for peanutsView attachment 713959
I mean sure, there has never been a real life example in the entire history of humanity of socialism working out in the long run and never mind that the flaws of socialism would inevitably lead to Venezuela imploding in the aftermath. But it's somehow the fault of the United States for why Venezuela is burning to the ground while your shitty government that is desperately trying to cling on to power at this point.
That aside, if I understood the collapse correctly, it's only America's fault in the sense that we diminished the value of oil which Venezuela heavily depended on when its government took complete control of their industry. God forbid another nation try to lead the world in one of its most valuable resources. I mean, diversifying your options is pretty important to a national economy and yes you can specialize in something unique to your country, but that's still really stupid to only rely on it and it alone. This is from what I've read and heard from a Venezuelan, so take it for what it's worth... it's not like I live there or anything.
I do know a lot of people have died because of Maduro's paranoia and absolute refusal to let in doctors, but you can't blame dictators for being paranoid and causing crisis after crisis because of that paranoia. No, that's clearly America's fault or Doctors Without Borders for being spies. For once America didn't assassinate anyone and throw everything into chaos after, but it's still somehow our fault. We might as well just start assassinating everyone if we're gonna be blamed anyways.
