I was more exposing the complete idiocy and hypocrisy of labeling Chavez with the term of "dictator" for these reasons, seeing as the presidency in the United States has the same authority (actually more) to censor things that openly endorse and mobilize the illegal overthrow of the government, and in fact has used that authority many more times than Chavez. | I'm beginning to think that you're not smart enough to realize how stupid your writing is.
First of all, you're condoning Chavez's censorship. Period.
Second, I've said nothing about your "personal beliefs."
Third, comparing Chavez to the President of the United States - regardless of said president's political party - is idiotic.
So put on your big boy undies and watch. Chavez is pressing for totalitarianism. It probably won't work, but there will undoubtedly be countless thousands of people die as a result of it - before Chavez is either assassinated or run out of office. |
