he problem isn’t that you think Maduro is illegitimate. The problem is that Washington decides legitimacy the same way it decides ownership, by force. You say "the world agreed." Which world?

The problem isn’t that you think Maduro is illegitimate.
The problem is that Washington decides legitimacy the same way it decides ownership, by force.
You say "the world agreed."
Which world?
The U.S. and its satellites?
Because the United Nations, the African Union, the Non-Aligned Movement, and more than 130 countries still recognize Maduro’s government.
That’s not a global consensus.
That’s a Western bloc voting inside its echo chamber.
Even if you believed the 2024 election was flawed, and there were irregularities, as in every U.S. election, collective punishment of 30 million civilians isn’t justice.
It’s siege warfare.
Sanctions don’t target leaders. They target life.
They block medicine, fuel, food, and foreign reserves, then claim moral high ground while children starve.
If democracy were really the goal, Washington would lift sanctions and let Venezuelans decide their future freely, without coercion or blackmail.
But that’s the one outcome empire fears most, an unmanipulated vote.
The U.S. doesn’t sanction tyranny. It sanctions disobedience.
Saudi Arabia can dismember a journalist and receive weapons.
Israel can flatten hospitals and receive billions.
But Venezuela nationalizes its oil, and suddenly it’s "a dictatorship."
Sanctions aren’t about democracy.
They’re about discipline.
And the only "crime" Maduro committed was refusing to bow.
