No, just people smart enough to spot what you really are, regardless of age. There's a name for the debating tactic you constantly employ because you don't appear able to deal with any criticism of your ridiculous posts: Ad hominem. This is where you can't attack the argument because you know you are spinning everything your way, and instead you attack the man, or the user addressing your arguments. This is all your statement above amounts to, it's ad hominem completely.
Frankly none of us care what or who you think we are, we just care that your arguments are always so very slanted toward the US state department's official line.

WE have dealt with it mightily and correctly, notice how your comments ALWAYS and let's face it here I really mean ALWAYS duck, dodge, warble, ad hom, distract, and downright lie about the issues you trumpet?
Yes. It's called propaganda for a reason.

Yes, you the self-styled world weary genius traveler who has been everywhere in the 20th century from Russia to Cuba to Venezuela (and are now blabbering openly about it on the internet... like all the other people who really were in these place do...
)is telling us how much smarter he is than everyone else, and that is why his version of events are true and nothing seen or heard elsewhere is.

I believe several have articulated a stance that simply endorses the anti-Imperial stance of Venezuela against the West without actually specifically endorsing Venezuela. Its typical of ideologues that they can't separate the nuanced opinions of their learned opponents though so I'm not entirely surprised. Let's face it, this is exactly the way the US state department debates anyone... anytime.

As you don't read links and articles, neither can anyone else be bothered to waste time with your drivel.
Social_Critic wrote:When I post a comment like this it is usually ignored
No, its always ignored because everyone knows your just an ideologue posting the same 'ole crap you ever post. Its ignored because you have no credibility up to this point.
Social_Critic wrote:It seems the full scope of the tragedy taking place in Venezuela is not understood by the youthful thinking oldsters who populate PoFo´s extreme left.
We understand quite well that the bourgeois who were removed (rightly) deserve to stay the hell out of Venezuela, and we further understand that the US will do or say anything to crack open the door of international Capitalism so that they may exploit them to their fullest. Hence money makers in the US have much in common with the excommunicated domestic bourgeois of Venezuela.

And you can carry on peddling the same 'ole state department lies and obfuscations if
you wish but this isn't going to change the opposition to your posts.

Because I´ll make sure this is used in several thesis by students writing about government breakdowns and descents into dictatorship, and the way humanity fails to respond when those failures occur. You will be quoted and what you write will be studied.
Those in the know on this forum will understand this comment very well:
You're a real Millie. Do your worst.

Yes, that totally happened in a vacuum because you were completely innocent and being picked on.
Or maybe it was because you posted a misleading thread title that had nothing to do with the article but got people to look at your spam where they would not have otherwise?
But yeah, sure... you're completely on the level in all ways all the time.
