Human Rights Watch Versus Reality In Venezuela

Garry Leech does a great job unpacking the mountain of bullshit piled on the legacy of Hugo Chavez in Venezuela by Human Rights Watch.  Illuminating the hilarious biases of HRW is important in understanding how the glorious empire in the U.S. relates to the places in the world who are not completely content to be loyal partners in our hegemony.  The lens of our astounding first-world bias is a powerful intoxicant, and purportedly well-meaning NGO's like HRW are blindingly impaired before they even start, often acting as useful-idiot justification for whatever the current imperial imperatives happen to be.
