"The US invaded Venezuela, kidnapped its President and declared that the US would run Venezuela and take its oil. Is this just about oil? Some correctly condemn US imperialism - but what is imperialism? What are the deeper dynamics of this system in today's world? What does Venezuela have to do with the global contention between the US and China?"
"What will it take to stop MAGA fascism? And what will it take to put an end to imperialism? U.S. Out of Venezuela! Trump Must Go Now! In the Name of Humanity, We Refuse to Accept a Fascist America! This Whole System Is Rotten and Illegitimate. We Need and We Demand: A Whole New Way to Live, a Fundamentally Different System!"
U.S. forces invaded Venezuela, kidnapped its president, and declared that the United States would run the country and seize its oil. The event frames questions about whether the seizure is solely about oil and about the nature and deeper dynamics of imperialism today. The situation connects to global contention between the U.S. and China and to U.S. declarations rejecting imperialist rivals in Latin America. Trump MAGA fascism is characterized as approaching Latin America in a different, more overtly aggressive way than historical U.S. imperialism. Calls demand U.S. withdrawal, removal of Trump, rejection of fascism, and a fundamentally different societal system.
