"I Am Seeing The Same Pattern Repeat"

https://www.dailywire.com/news/venezuelan-immigrant-warns-america-about-destroying-statues-history-i-am-seeing-the-same-pattern-repeat

I remember, that statues of Christopher Columbus being knocked down. After that, the street names changed, not all of them, but quite a few of them, Rogliani said. They changed the name of the national park in Caracas to something more indigenous. They changed the flag of our country; they also changed the name. They dismantled our police in 2001 and put in place a new one. They changed our voting system, so the way we voted changed.
Why am I worried about statues coming down in the United States? Rogliani continued. Its because I am seeing the same pattern repeat. And Im not speaking to this as an expert at U.S. politics and U.S. history, but I can recognize the signs, and these are not isolated incidents. Ive been hearing from people from Cuba, people that left Soviet countries, that they feel the same thing is repeating. And the attack on history, by first going after those symbols was the first way to do it.

These groups are not hiding their intentions, theyre making it quite clear. Someone, the founder of one of the groups that started this whole attack symbols and statues, already said openly that shes a trained Marxist. Theyve already shown friendships to the Venezuelan regime.
Theres a clear attack to certain symbols and its not just Confederate statues. So, lets get away from this idea that the attack is on Confederate statues and therefore on slavery. The attack is on most statues that are important for U.S. history, Founding Fathers, also strangely enough, Spanish missionaries. What they all have in common to me is that they are all Western symbols. So the attack is on Western culture and Western history. And is it a perfect history? No. But no history is perfect.

This. Venezuela isnt the way it is because of "marxists", it's because their economy is entirely dependent on oil and oil prices crashed a while back.

I guarantee no one from Venezuela wrote that bullshit.

Street names and statues being torn down ate not what put Chavez in power
