International Brotherhood of Men

I asked the google AI.

Given the reports of the
capture of Nicolás Maduro on January 3, 2026, a victory by the U.S. and a subsequent transition away from socialism in Venezuela would directly impact the flow of socialist influence to the West in several key ways:
1. Termination of Direct Financial Support
Under the Maduro administration, Venezuela reportedly used state resources to bolster sympathetic movements abroad:

Funding Grassroots Networks: Venezuela has been accused of providing financial support to radical left-wing organizations and grassroots activists in both Europe and the U.S. to build international solidarity. A change in government would immediately cut off these financial pipelines.
Lobbying and Advocacy: Significant funds were dedicated to promoting the "Bolivarian Revolution" through various front organizations. A non-socialist government would likely redirect these resources toward national reconstruction, leaving Western socialist groups without a primary international patron.

2. Loss of Media and Propaganda Infrastructure
Venezuela has played a central role in shaping pro-socialist narratives in the West:

Media Outreach: Outlets like TeleSUR have been critical in disseminating anti-imperialist and socialist ideas to Western audiences. A shift in control or the defunding of such networks would silence a major global mouthpiece for socialist ideology.
Influence Operations: Reports suggest that the previous regime engaged in digital influence operations to polarize Western political debates. A pro-Western government would cease these activities, reducing the "artificial" amplification of socialist ideas online.

3. Removal of an "Ideological Laboratory"
Venezuela served as a real-world example that Western socialist thinkers often cited:

Loss of a Political Reference Point: Western groups frequently pointed to Venezuela's social programs as viable alternatives to capitalism. The definitive failure and forceful removal of this regime would make it much harder for these groups to use Venezuela as a successful case study.
Dissolution of Solidarity Campaigns: Numerous "Hands Off Venezuela" campaigns in the West would lose their focal point. Without a socialist government to defend, these organizations may struggle to maintain internal cohesion and purpose.

4. Shift in Geopolitical Power Dynamics
Venezuela has been a gateway for broader anti-Western influence:

Breaking the Anti-U.S. Axis: Venezuela acted as a strategic partner for Russia, China, and Iran in the Western Hemisphere. A U.S.-aligned Venezuela would no longer provide a base for these powers to promote socialist or anti-capitalist sentiment within the U.S. sphere of influence.

Conclusion: While socialist ideas themselves will continue to exist in the West, the external mechanisms that financed, promoted, and ideologically anchored them through the Venezuelan state would effectively collapse. This would significantly diminish the external capacity to influence or support socialist movements within Western nations.

I doubt Venezuela shithole is doing any astroturfing and social engineering in the west. Venezuela is a much, much worse version of my own country, Brazil. Here there are government outlets that are extremely ideological and propagandist, and there is astroturfing with bots as well, but I don't think they do any of this internationally, only in a national sense, and the propaganda is extremely low quality, it can't fool anyone who is not already brainwashed. Most of the government efforts are about allying with criminal groups that sell drugs and control the poorest areas, as well as brainwashing them with a vile version of "Christianity" called neo-charismatic movement.

I don't think they are doing international propaganda because I legit think they are too incompetent for that, the members of corrupt Latin American governments are very stupid.

People in here believe in a modified version of Marxism where the lumpenproletariat(criminals, drug users, stupid playboys etc) are, instead of being leeches like Karl Marx said, are the main soldiers and fighters of a communist revolution. So mainstream media literally worships criminals, as well as the general population.

Dont worry too much about socialism or communism. Overall is based on race and culture of institutions, constitution, your culture, your history, so on.

I mean that there are things that far surpass an ideology. For instance nazism did not reform culture of institutions. Russia communism inherited same local administrators from previous regime. China communism is just another standard asian dictatorship. In a nutshell, these "new ideas" do not transcend race, your culture, your history... And they did try, they tried to erase history rename streets, destroy all arts.

But at some point you cannot erase blood, and some leftists want us all to be racially mixed hoping to dilute racial bias.

I think these "new ideas" always miss the point and cannot predict all elements like race, genes, IQ, culture of institutions. So they always fail for another reason. Maybe the latest newest leftist thinker considered X amount of things, but he gets fucked by the thing he didnt even know existed or he was in denial of due to his ideology.

Some people for example are in denial of race. Or they are in denial of culture of institutions.

ANd dont worry too much about socialism. Accept it can happen and just be cool with it.

But that's the same everywhere nowadays

Still, less socialist influence in the world.
