Craig Murray about a current Venezuela situation (a proper candidate for an AtS reposting):

BTW, what anyone here thinks about the events in Venezuela? I am, personally, a bit surprised that the imperial regime-changers appear to be so open and blatant about their active participation this time; they do not even try to deny their reponsibility (“it is not us, it is the will of the people, shut up you conspiracy theorists!”). Well, maybe I shouldn’t be that surprised?
We’ve been discussing that on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/keith.preston.77/posts/10218385953546730?__xts__%5B0%5D=68.ARD2UGB-Hze1Ps-cU6t-GxSnFeQpikopojHSAwnXDTxfhoLFwbFN2O9LJfZNXH49htLMrgb-U0GVIFvXg9MUS9Skj6YXEscIxdthkrqOtvHpE01Bx0Lz0EelClBSxUHtnffPFdFVuPH_OBB8tTYJZ0bttzT6eJglCKh9h2w1sXc6-Gawwp7F6Dw0qKB5jXMN2yALKxGRTWYOpaEy8TeBeUygdF8JBsLDt3t4wXRS6NlGswIghq_5BcB52_Ntz-c4oNL8dKsvCcfOhE_uyguJSwlkj26hrvRVcwUit0-YzPNIOfk3f29I1VcjzIYBqfXAT6BuR46AhQxppimzI4N2&__tn__=-R
RJ’s story about being tased is absolutely horrifying. Good news about Star Trek though!
RJ is an anarchist who walks the walk.
Hording most often stems from trauma. It is a way for the hoarder to control their environment. Discarding whatever the hoarder values creates high anxiety. It is a mental disorder and often the person has a hard time discerning between discarding a thing and a sense of discarding the memory or person associated with that thing.
The term “mental disorder” is overused, just like “conspiracy theorist”, “terrorist”, and “fascist”. I agree that hoarding often stems from trauma, but I think it a disgusting dastardly mistake to classify behavior so stringently. People don’t “have depression”, they’re just depressed. People don’t “have anxiety”, they’re just anxious. For good reason. These behaviors are in response to our environment, a loud, crowded, increasingly restrictive environment. Many people hoard things for apparently no good reason, but many people also hoard things because they sense the scarcity of certain resources. Such as food. The human mind is too complex to treat so simply, yet too simple to understand this complexity.
A very good and detailed article about Juan Guaido’s history, and a possible AtS republication candidate :
