Venezuelans to Jim Carrey: ‘Socialism Represents Opression Against the People’
enezuelans suffering through the worst crisis in the nation’s history have responded with outrage to actor Jim Carrey’s call to the world to “say yes to socialism.” In a column published Wednesday, columnist Laureano Márquez argued that Carrey misunderstands the “repression” conducted in the name of socialism in places like the Latin American country.

Márquez, writing for the Venezuelan outlet Runrunes, gives Carrey the benefit of the doubt as an actor with no known education in political science. “Sometimes it seems that Hollywood stars’ inability to understand politics is directly proportional to their on-screen talent,” he writes. “Reagan was always a very untalented actor, thank God.”

Márquez argues that Carrey is using a definition of socialism that is naive and out of touch with the realities experienced in places like Venezuela, suggesting he believes socialism “is a word that sounds pretty … the antithesis of selfishness, synonym of concern for others, equal distribution of riches, support for the weakest and their needs, health and education for everyone, etc.”

He goes on to note that dictators like Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro use the word “socialism” to “hide deep threats … against what is considered socialism, hiding a purely intolerant and hardcore authoritiarianism, if not an outright dictatorship.” He cites the fact that Maduro’s family and cronies control the limited wealth left in the country, leaving most of the rest of the citizenry eating out of the garbage.

Somehow I doubt he will be putting that into a painting.

Jim... do thy will be the whole of the law.

If my will is to change James T Kirk, and it is not his will, it will not be done.

i get to walk down the street and poop in a bag, because i can tie up the bag and put it in a poop bin, supplied by a city run by people who know people should have the right to be fulfilled, so that they can walk down the street not stepping in poop.

and not being robbed, stabbed, blown smoke on, made to listen to loud noises after dark.

Re: Venezuelans to Jim Carrey: ‘Socialism Represents Opression Against the People’
you all realize what is happening in venezuela has ZERO to do with socialism right?

and everything to do with the fact that venezuela has the worlds largest oil reserves and ever since Chavez would not bow to the US the US has been trying to regime change Venezuela by destabilizing the country

it is the same tactic they have used in countless other resource rich countries where the democratically elected leaders of those countries refuse to surrender their resources to the US and the west.

they destabilize the country by introducing a terrorist squad that just fucks shit up and cause trouble for the government... destroy infrastructure, murder people from time to time, disrupt the flow of goods and services

they destabilize the country be destroying their currency and stopping food from being delivered

it is the same tactic the CIA has used in countless resource rich countries like Iran, Guatemala, and Chile to name a few

Hillary and Obama were trying to destabilize Venezuela for all of Obamas two terms just as Bush was trying to regime change Chavez and just like Trump is trying to regime change venezuela


so they tell you socialism fails... maybe it does... maybe it does not... but how can any country succeed, socialist or not, if the US has been trying to regime change it for 3 presidents now???

Socialism is oppression:

Thread: What is wrong with socialism? - At it's core socialism is force. The force of a government to tell you how to live your life.

I never viewed Maduro as a socialist. He appears more like a fascist to me. Never liked his looks and his running of the country into the ground pretty much verified my feelings about him. Many so called "socialists" are communists in reality.

Re: Venezuelans to Jim Carrey: ‘Socialism Represents Opression Against the People’


the tactics of the CIA are oppression

Venezuela with the worlds largest oil reserves will not play ball with the west and the US so the US does what it alwayw does and destabilizes the resource rich country

just like they did in Iran in 53 when Iran kicked out western oil corporations
just like they did in Guatemala in 54 when Guatemala kicked out United Fruit
just like they did in Chile in 73 when Chill kicked out ITT

etc
etc


all over the globe

the oppression is the western elite destroying democratically elected leaders of sovereign countries because they refuse to surrender their resources over to big western business

so they destabilize the country in order to regime change the leader and put in a puppet who will do what the western business interests want

been done for decades now in like 80+ countries

which is why it is comical when the media and libs say it is an act of war for a foreign nation to meddle in the elections of another country... when the US regime changes and assassinates democratically elected leaders in foreign countries ALL THE TIME

Jim Carrey has proven in the last few years that he's just a bat shit crazy old fool.

There's no reason for anyone to take anything that guy says seriously.

He's like the eccentric gross vagabond that just shows up at parties until someone beats their ass and they leave.

Bye Carrey.

If Carrey lived during soviet socialism, he'd be only making a set amount of money every month (very low), and would be jailed if he tried to have a business, and attempted to resell anything to make any extra money.

Jim Carrey sold his soul, reneged on the deal, and suffered for it. Recently hes gone and sold his soul a second time at a discount price.
