An important reflection for the times we live in. I live in Venezuela, a country that 25 years ago began a process that calls itself revolutionary. In my opinion, the result of these 25 years has been disastrous, greater poverty, greater dependence on the great powers, a migration of eight million people. This is my assessment, like any other, completely subjective and personal. Our leaders continue to make the same promises as on the first day, as if they were newcomers. I for one have learned to be suspicious of anything that calls itself a revolution. Thank you for the publication dear @denmarkguy. A big hug from Maracay.

I can certainly appreciate your skepticism of anything that calls itself revolutionary... of course, I only have the perspective of an "outsider" through the news we see here, which is often limited and biased.
Does seem to be a common thing with politics that leaders make the same old promises and act like the people have never heard them before, even when it is just recycling what has always been.
