This is another example of the disease of seeing what one wishes to see instead of staring facts in the face.
One of the severe cases of this illness is exhibited by the r-r-revolutionary Party of Socialism and Liberation, which said on Aug. 2: "From its inception in 2007 by then-president Hugo Chavez, the PSUV has brought together a political coalition committed to upholding the Bolivarian Revolution as a process of peaceful transition to socialism in the 21st century. " (emphasis added) PSL at https://www.liberationnews.org/the-bolivarian-revolution-lives-on-popular-democracy-in-venezuela/ At least PSL's phrases are familiar from the lexicon of peaceful transition à la Eduard Bernstein. Now try to make sense of Maduro's social-babble: “Chávez spoke a great deal about territorial socialism. I think it is a great contribution to the theory of world socialism, to economic socialism.” In this regard, he pointed out that in Venezuela “there is a transition to socialism, a socialism with Bolivarian, Christian, and deeply democratic values.” May 15, 2024 at https://orinocotribune.com/president-maduro-venezuela-is-transitioning-to-socialism/ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
