I still believe in two kongs

wha??

RIP Robert Redford, the Mad Dog had your back

Why isn't it easier to believe they blew up the boat then instead of a baseless claim that it is AI?

No instead he just helped rig an election

I think it is naive to believe a guy in charge of Venezuelan propaganda who is saying it is AI based on nothing

Well the explosion is on video. As opposed to the guy from the Venezuelan gov who is saying it is AI based on nothing

The person you are yukking it up with was

I'm not the one vilifying asylum seekers

Well if the Venezuelan government pretended it never happened then they would not have to respond or get into a conflict with the US that could escalate. But I guess we'll see what their official position is

This is an evil thing to say

Wouldn't it be easier to think then that did their bidding about blowing up a little boat because Trump told them to

So you basically have the same take on asylum seekers as scumbag right wingers

Well they keep threatening to invade Guyana!

So if you think they are going to do a larger intervention, why do you think they would make up blowing up a little boat?

Venezuela was one of the richest countries in Latin America and now it is a failed state that squandered their oil wealth that they were way too dependent on. There is a reason people are fleeing it. Sanctions have hurt their economy but it's not the reason they are in this mess

So all the people seeking asylum are anti indigenous racists? Interesting

I personally disapprove. I still think it doesn't make sense to think it is AI or think the Venezuelan ministry of communications is correct

yeah that was bad. It's easier to believe that they will do the bad things they said they did then think it is AI for some reason

I am more inclined to believe people I have talked to that have fled the country than left wingers on bluesky about this. Regardless, doesn't mean Trump admin is right or sane to do this.

Because it's run by an autocracy that has made many bad policy choices

Or that the strike was a wise/legal/moral action to do

I think there is more reason to believe them, especially when they show video of an explosion that would be very easy for the military to do, then the people in charge of propaganda for a dictatorship that just rigged their election. That doesnt mean Trump admin narrative on drugs makes any sense

Do you think the people who have fled from Venezuela and are very critical of their government are all racist and xenophobic?

no

oh god, come on man

Because there is some semblance of reality that officials at the Pentagon usually adhere to and it would be unusual for them to make shit up to this degree whereas it is the job of the people in charge of propaganda in the Venezuelan government to constantly lie about everything

Pentagon officials have more credibility than the Venezuelan minister of communication

I think there's more reason to believe the US military here then some hack from the Venezuelan government
