Recognising Fake News & False Propaganda!

Venezuela: Identifying Fake News & False Propaganda! (13.1.2026)

13/01/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Trump I (2017-2021) was all about “censoring” expression on social media – left, right, and centre. The alt-right was suppressed alongside the left – with the far-right being encouraged. Trump I even targeted social media platforms with online software attacks irrespective of the owners agreeing – even wordpress came under attack in this manner. Then, when Trump was voted-out and the social media platforms started to “ban” Trump in retaliation – Trump II (2025-2029) is all about “freedom of expression! providing its not left-wing, is pro-America (as in not questioning Trump’s racism or class hatred), and thoroughly racist (pro-White). Either way, the left is completely crushed and dead in the water (although it exists in a disjointed manner on platforms like Telegram). Of course, the legitimate (Maduro) government is broadcasting on Telegram and it is educating its people not to fall for the simplistic online US lies and misdirection. Check with reliable sources and do not accept things at face-value. This also goes for the rest of us as well. Also, beware of the duplicitous Catholic Church.

UN: Members Denounce US Attack on Venezuela! (12.1.2026)

12/01/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

This being the case, why does the UN – and its constituent members – suddenly find it so unpalatable when the US behaves like the rogue Zionist regime it finances? Whilst the US denies free healthcare to its own citizens – the US also finances completely free healthcare for every Israeli citizen (this is also true for South Korea, Taiwan and Japan – key US players in the region). Given that the US has imported Neo-Nazism into Ukraine and fought a proxy-war since 2014 – why shouldn’t Trump act in this lawless manner toward Venezuela? What political or military mechanism is there to stop him? None. Obama destroy a Socialist Libya, installed the Maidan Junta in Kyiv, and began the destruction of Syria. Obama was one of the worst US warmongers – but is fondly remembered for a second-rate health system and free mobile phones. You see my point. Free health, of course, is one of the main principles of any Socialist System, and this fact demonstrates the cynical nature of US foreign policy around the world.

According to the analysis result, the drone, which took off in an area of Kanghwa County, Inchon City of the ROK, at around 12:50 on January 4, was set to film the DPRK’s major objects while flying a total distance of 156 km at a height of 100~300 meters at the speed of 50 km an hour for three hours and ten minutes, entering Kaephung District of Kaesong Municipality and the areas of Phyongsan and Kumchon counties of North Hwanghae Province under the DPRK’s territory and then returning to Joksong-myon, Phaju City, Kyonggi Province of the ROK, via Kaephung and Phanmun districts and Jangphung County, Kaesong Municipality.

Cuban Community in Argentina Permitted to Protest US Terrorism in Venezuela!

Argentina: Cubans Protest Trump’s Venezuela Terrorism – Confirm US Suffered Casualties! (10.1.2026)

In a statement, the organization honoured these fallen Comrades as “32 lions” who fiercely resisted to the very end. According to the URCA, the Cuban fighters were performing military functions at the request of the Venezuelan government and faced a “far superior and powerful” force of more than 200 elite (and special) soldiers backed by dozens of aircraft. They claimed that they offered “total resistance” and caused casualties and damage to the attacking US Forces before being killed. The organization held US President Donald Trump directly responsible for their deaths.

UK: Morning Star Anti-Trans Cartoon & Other Bourgeois Nonsense! (9.1.2026)

09/01/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

During the murder of Charlie Hebdo staff for printing a racist cartoon featuring an Arab (which criticised Islam) – the CPB and the Moring Star “ignored” the racist motivation and racist nature of the cartoon (associating freedom of expression with the right to be racist) – and openly supported the Charlie Hebdo business (re-publishing the offending cartoon). This policy replaced the more correct position of condemning the terrorist murders – whilst simultaneously condemning the French racism that triggered this violent response. This is an interesting departure for the Morning Star which in other circumstances has seen its full support for Islamic violence – providing it is aimed at Buddhist minorities. The Morning Star’s position was echoed in the Communist Review – a copy of which I encountered during a visit to the Marx Memorial Library in London. This is an example of the disgusting racism that exists and manifests on the far-left in the UK.

Cuba & Venezuela United in Opposing US Terrorism!

MEDEL: Venezuela & Cuba United in Opposition to Trump-Ordered US Terrorism – Fallen Socialist Heroes Remembered! (9.1.2026)

09/01/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Cuba, Bruno Rodríguez:

Today, Cuba pays an emotional tribute to the Venezuelan fighters fallen in defense of the Bolivarian and Chavista Revolution, as well as to the sacred Venezuelan homeland.

We also express a heartfelt tribute to the Cuban fighters who, in unequal combat, faced the imperialist enemy who desecrated the sovereignty of the Venezuelan homeland and protected the Constitutional President Nicolás Maduro.

Honour and glory to the fighters fallen in unequal combat; love and peace to the Venezuelan men and women killed by the imperialist horde.
