You are one of these people who idolize democracy, chant "threat to democracy" like it is a holy hymn, who buy into Open Society ideals. And yet, when an actual dictator is removed, your response is anger.
Why?
Because at some point, Venezuelan people became expendable in service of a larger abstraction you call "stability" of the liberal democratic order.
Maduro's Venezuela was useful. It was predictable. It gave BRICS a foothold in the hemisphere, kept drug flows legible and quantifiable, and weakened an increasingly inconvenient United States. It made the region easier to model, easier to manage, easier to explain in policy memos. In short, Maduro made the whole world more legible to you.
A free Venezuela introduces uncertainty. It restores agency to people who were supposed to remain variables.
So now we get lectures about "international law," tantrums from NGOs, and sudden concern for norms that were never extended to the people living under a narco-dictatorship.
We understand the objection. It just isn't the one you say out loud.

The Party of Socialism & Liberation (PSL) was in Caracas, Venezuela for the first International Anti-Fascist Festival.

DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - Reminder that many of the anti-fascist groups that have been attempting a color revolution here in the United States have strong ties to Venezuela. They served as election monitors (which is invite-only by Maduro) and met with Maduro's officials.
Whenever you see someone cry about "regime change" - remember many factions are already attempting regime change right here in America, including foreign countries. Maduro was already waging war within the shores of the United States. We just finally struck back for the first time.

DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - Right... because the responsible path would have been to funnel billions, quietly and indefinitely, through Freedom House, Open Society, NED, RAND, RTI, and the rest. Buy the media. Subsidize the protesters. Pick a color scheme, slap a name like "Daisy Revolution" on it, and drag the process out for years. Eventually Maduro exits, his equally corrupt but pro-Western successor takes over, everyone involved declares victory, and two years later it's still a Communist dictatorship. Just a familiar regime-change theater that congratulates itself for procedure while delivering the same nonexistent outcome.
Your "New World Order" is over. Keep crying.
