Venezuela didn't fell into a crisis out of corruption and mismanagement alone, they were pushed into a crisis by the US, and the corruption of the bureaucracy is more a consequence than a cause.
Having said that, I stress, the PSUV is not a revolutionary party. Chavismo is a bunch of nice slogans and little more. The future of the Venezuelan people depends on an international revolution that removes their foreign oppressors, it can't be solved only with actions within its borders.

argumento :socialiststar:
In response to this postAnd I make this extensive to all of so called Latin America. As long as there's an international market that subdues our nations for its interests, that are the interests of the powerful nations (imperialists) as much as of the international bourgeoisie (transnational corps) any attempt at "national liberation" or at "building socialism" will end in corruption, cronyism (boliburguesÃa) and in the long run repression in order to keep power
That's why I'm an internationalist and not a nationalist
@argumento I wanna push back on that last bit. Sure, nationalism wound up to not be very productive in Venezuela, but nationalism has often been at the heart of very successful socialist movements such as those in Cuba, the DPRK, and Vietnam. You can't really have internationalism without nationalism; otherwise, you just end up with a sort of globalism, however well-meaning.
