Article from the Daily Wire by Amanda Prestigiacomo.
As the American Left openly embraces socialism, Venezuelans are literally slaughtering zoo animals in a desperate attempt to fend off starvation.
Vermont Senator and open “Democratic Socialist” (read: socialist) Bernie Sanders has steered clear from this damning reality, dodging questions about the hellscape that is currently Venezuela — excluding those who are in power, of course.
But Sanders is in luck! There’s a new talking point to add to his incoherent economic babble: the highly effective socialism diet. While many of those considered poor here in evil capitalistic America are fatter than feminist Lindy West, socialism in Venezuela has caused the average citizen to lose about 24 pounds, according to an annual academic survey released Wednesday.

This is the wrecked country barely an actor, Sean Penn, went down to embrace the greatness of their new, forced upon them – Dictator! This is what Dictators do: take-over medially functioning countries – and THEY WRECK THEM! Within the 1st few days of the forced leadership ‘change’ mothers could no longer get milk for their children, because the Dictator, who seized all the businesses – knew nothing of how to run all these businesses – just take and divide up all the spoils (supplies and cash needed to run the business day to day), etc. which can only be done once! Then that product is produced no more! Same for all the other ceased businesses. Now people are starving, when they used to have enough to eat! Thank you Sean Penn for the propaganda that helped ruin Venezuela – what a useful Idiot!
