significant lack of understanding of Venezuelan politics

I suffer from the same. I watched Empire Files but that's about it. Do you have any (short) book recommendations that cover recent history in broad strokes, or would news and wikipedia be appropriate? There's so much to learn about I hate coming up on 850 page books outlining every single detail of the past 400 years and then finding out it's written by Lt. Col. Nato McColdwar III.

Building the Commune: Radical Democracy in Venezuela by George Ciccarello-mahr and Commune or Nothing by Chris Gilbert, are good places to start. They're both short, and focus on modern Venezuelan politics and history, focusing on the Socialist movement
