Re: [OPE] Venezuela is the most democratic country in Latin America

Paul Z.: **Surely, comrades, you don't believe the bourgeois press lying about there being gulags in the Soviet Union. 50% of the CPUSA membership somehow decided to leave after the 20th Party Congress.  I wonder why.**   Hello Paul Z! Do you recommend any source to deep into this chapter of the history of 20th Century socialism?   Regards,A.

It is no use trying to claim that the bourgeois press in Venezuela is always lying.  Its truths can be a weapon against the working class, as its lies.  (In the specific instance, I am open to information on Chavez's accumulation of wealth or lack thereof, independent of, e.g., Obama.)
