    For me personally, it’s the statement of fact without sources. This is the era of AI and social disinformation. “Trust me, bro!” carries even less weight now than ever.

    Don’t get me wrong, even though Venezuela doesn’t deserve US aggression, Maduro is still a shady conman and I wouldn’t put it past him to sell out his country.

    But I won’t believe it just because someone said it was true.

      yeah agreed across the board there.

      fwiw new information here re: vice president demanding proof of life

      Interesting to see Spain’s response which acknowledges their position against Maduro whilst condemning the attack
