At no point did I say "oppression by the USA." I don't know if you saw the photos or read everything, but I said the same thing as always, the same thing that happens year after year, and it's the armed groups of the Venezuelan government that they send to kill and control.

Regarding "ordinary people', they voted for Chavez and Maduro. They get what they deserve.
I have no faith in the people of Venezuela to fight oppression because they voted for it so many times since 1999

Yes, because of a group of people who voted for Chávez, the country has been ruined for generations, and those of us who aren't even old enough to vote are the ones paying the price. The protests and the struggle to get rid of Chavismo began in 2001, but it's a long story. There have been many obstacles along the way.

Part of that problem is the Venezuelan National Guard; they're demons sold out to the Venezuelan government. Only once, in 2019, did a small group of soldiers try to bring about change, but they all ended up dead... another long story for another comment.
