As described by who? Venezuela is a budding socialist country with a flourishing commune system. It's called a "kleptocracy" by imperialists upset that Hugo Chavez started a wave of nationalizing resources and businesses so that the wealth of Venezuela would belong to Venezuelans, not the US Empire. Stop caping for the empire and downplaying an existing socialist country fighting off imperialism with weak moral platitudes.

Thanks! It's a bit suspicious that it's been removed.

There are other sources on Venezuela's growing commune movement, that's just one I had on hand.

Oh sorry not suspicious of you. I appreciate all the work you put into your comments! Just seems like a convenient time to lose positive articles for maduro on their webpage.

Agreed, here's a book that goes over the rising movement!
