I was going to ask how it's possible to stop so many Venezuelans living abroad from voting. Then, of course, you get to

The regime imprisoned over 2,000 people, many of whom are still unaccounted for, and unofficially killed about 20 people in the context of the protests

... and it doesn't seem so shocking.
Terrifying stuff, what's going on in Venezuela. Though what you said about passports being annulled (while also terrifying) made me wonder. Why? So people don't say the election was stolen. Yet I think of so-called democracies like the US, where you had a lot of people talking about how the election was stolen (both in 2016 and in 2020) and in the end, what they said online didn't matter. Similar in my own native Romania. Stolen election this year, people made a fuss online for a could of days, then it blew over. Nobody cared. Which makes one wonder, why go to such length to stop someone talking if nobody will care about injustice anyway?

I hope you continue writing as I'd like to understand more about what is happening over there, and I happen to enjoy your writing. Also, unrelated, but I was wondering if you'd consider answering a few questions on minimalism for the MINIMALIST community? I'm running an interview series on that, and I'd love to hear your thoughts on the matter. We could talk more about it on Discord (honeydue8397) if you're interested. Cheers.
