demigod! 03.05.13	hmm RIP I guess?
WeepingBanana 03.05.13	you mean the douche bag that douche bags from my country try and piss off?
DominionMM1 03.05.13	cia-sponsored assassination
altforazninva5in 03.05.13	Whoa, Chavez is actually dead?
kris. 03.05.13	rip i hear his country has nice parks
altforazninva5in 03.05.13	I hear his country has nice fencers
Gwyn. 03.05.13	it doesn't, for neither of those things
ExcentrifugalForz 03.05.13	Why must all my role models die? I too have heard the parks thing.
toxin. 03.05.13	I don't know how to feel about this because idk enough about Venezuelan politics. RIP though
kris. 03.05.13	parks & rec reference that apparently no one got cuz no one watches it OH WELL
Trebor. 03.05.13	A lot of Americans have been trained to hate him and I don't really know why
anarchistfish 03.05.13	Woah. I literally thought to myself this morning that he'd probably be dead within a few weeks
anarchistfish 03.05.13	I GOT YOUR REFERENCE KRIS
Gwyn. 03.05.13	"A lot of Americans have been trained to hate him and I don't really know why" it probably has to do with some of his decisions lol plus he was a north-american hate machine
altforazninva5in 03.05.13	oh well RIP the man was a revolutionary
kris. 03.05.13	THANKS ANARCHIST!!!
WeepingBanana 03.05.13	i wonder if tee shirts with his face on them will be popular in 20 years
toxin. 03.05.13	"it probably has to do with some of his decisions lol plus he was a north-american hate machine" well yes but it's not like america was very nice to him
Gwyn. 03.05.13	America isn't very nice to anyone but his hatred still came across as fanatic, plus his endless desire to give Venezuela "Freedom" and "spirit" and "a name" and all that shit was just lol
Rail 03.05.13	He was a tyrant, albeit a democratically-elected one. Hopefully there'll be some movement on releasing interned opposition parties.
AtomicWaste 03.05.13	"cia-sponsored assassination" Oddly enough, Venezuela ejected at least two US ambassadors today. I read that it was because they suspected that the US somehow gave Chavez cancer.
wabbit 03.05.13	hopefully the new guy isn't a dumb socialist. We need more oil and poor people in Venezuela don't matter as much as us
Gwyn. 03.05.13	"Oddly enough, Venezuela ejected at least two US ambassadors today. I read that it was because they suspected that the US somehow gave Chavez cancer." as stupid as it is to some, the US poisoning Chavez isn't actually all that far-fetched since they have a long history of doing very shady things to other countries
tragic.details 03.05.13	Kris, kudos on the parks & rec reference.
anarchistfish 03.05.13	I don't really know what to think of him. On one hand he had many strong ideals that you don't often see in global politics, but on the other hand he didn't seem completely competent in putting them into practice and led an unacceptably corrupt government.
Dolving999 03.05.13	Apparently, he was constantly re-electing himself. If that's true, good riddance.
blastOFFitsPARTYtime 03.06.13	RIP Hugo. History will absolve you.

altforazninva5in 03.06.13	"Apparently, he was constantly re-electing himself. If that's true, good riddance." What if I hate freedom though
blastOFFitsPARTYtime 03.06.13	Freedom's overrated agreed
Torii 03.06.13	I live in Venezuela too, and trust me, shit went down in Caracas. A lot of people burst out crying like hell, fire against the oposition, everyday stuff. Btw, I really thought I was the only venezuelan in this god forsaken place. I like you.
