Hugo Chavez another Socialist/Communist Dictator?/Image courtesy of visionamericas.com
Results from the Venezuelan referendum worry on what is coming up next in international affairs. It is a possible defeat for future democracy and freedom, but I am not surprised that people who voted for Mr. Chavez are very short sighted and narrow minded, as a result of the ongoing leftist propaganda and brainwashing of society.
It is the will of the people in Venezuela, which accepted the amendments to the Constitution. Fair enough. But do they really know what they got themselves into?
Experts say that Chavez deliberatly played on the poverty, criminality and everything that is bad in his country, to force through his ideas of a socialist/communist revolution.
Cruel system
I know, from my own experience, that Socialism in any of its forms is a cruel system. Did not history already show us what will happen? Socialism is just a cover word for dictatorship and Communism. It evolves very rapidly into Communism and repression.
Why go so much against peace in the world? I would not be too worried if he would use mild and peaceful verses in his speeches, but all his anger and hate against the West is just to worrying.
Socialism/Communism = Dictatorship, money on arms, ties with dictators
Chavez already showed with his arm deals, military co-exercises with Russia, strong ties with Cuba and Iran, that he is not going to stay away from any means in order to protect the revolution in his country, but also wants to secure a place as a world power for God knows which reason.
Why does not he use the money to modernise the country? I am quite sure that infrastructure, education, health system and other important civil projects need improvements.
Refusing free thoughts
He even rejected entry for the Nobel Peace Prize Winner and Former President of Poland Lech Wałęsa, the one who brought down Communism in Eastern Europe through famous strikes. He was invited by the democratic opposition in Venezuela for talks and to give lectures.
Why? Becuase Chavez knows that Lech Wałęsa would endanger his struggle for complete power and a socialist dictatorship with him at the helm for another century if you like. It is fair to argue that he might want to stay in power with force in a few years time. Relating to dirty practices and oppressing methods.
This is just the beginning of censorship and repressing of thoughts. Next up is foreign and oppositional media…
Did the people there really experience what it means not be free? You might get some benefits from it, but what if you are not able to go abroad, roam around freely and most importantly think freely?
Just a cover
Any benefits hat come from socialists are just cover on what goes on in the background, where normal citizens do not have the rights to look into and where equality does not apply.There are only equal rights for a special group at the head of the state, the rest has to adapt to everything they say.
I just want to tell the people of Venezuela that what they chose is not a good choice, it is not the future. We know from history what can happen in the name of Socialism.
Democracy and the freedom is in danger in this South American country.
