Venezuela is literally nationalizing US investments, effectively stealing from the USA. Sanctions that punish them for taking our resources is fair. Yeah, Venezuela's Maduro regime wants to piss off the local Superpower. Lets see how that plays out. We don't have to trade with them. Sanctions aren't meddling, its just "we're gonna stop trading with you". If you don't like that, then don't piss us off. If you want to have US trade again, then try to make amends. But Hugo Chavez and Maduro have been actively trying to piss off the USA for the last 3 decades, because they're fucking brilliant at foreign policy, amirite?
Silvercorp isn't the CIA. If it were the CIA, you'd know it. USA has god damn supercarriers by the way, we wouldn't need to use paramilitary action to fuck over Venezuela if we really wanted to.
Do you see Ukraine? Afghanistan? Iraq? Syria? Libya? That's what USA-based meddling is. You'd know when we meddle, I promise. All the meddling that Hispanics complain about are largely conspiracy theories. And you know what? I don't really blame them per se, their world is collapsing and they need someone to lash out against. And USA is the biggest target for that.
Whatever. Keep the assholes out, but welcome the migrants who are happy enough to call USA their home.
You're gonna have to explain to me why Argentina needs this conspiracy-based "secret meddling" but isn't important enough for the "real meddling" that we do.
