I'm not very familiar with the situation in Venezuela. But the 'bad regime' is just a generic phrase that was not intended to convey the seriousness in any sense. However, what I can claim is that you totally ignored the seriousness of a foreign interference and invasion. Yes - a dictatorship is not a good situation at all anywhere in the world. But what good is it for a nation if one horrible regime is to be replaced by another? Do you know how many atrocities western militaries have inflicted in countries that they invaded in the name of liberating them? Many of them compete with the local tyrants on how cruel they can get. You wont learn much about it because the western media doesn't seem to care. Ask the people of countries that suffered western military invasion instead. I'm not sure you realize how much people outside the west resent the 'services rendered' in their countries. It's a long running trope around the world that if there is a serious conflict in any part of the world, it's sure to have the hand of one of two western powers in it. Yet, the western population pat themselves in the back for the virtues of freedom and equality. There are even those who are still proud of their colonial past, believing that they enriched their colonies somehow. Meanwhile, don't forget the depth of xenophobia and racism of the current regime that's virtue signalling with the intent to invade Venezuela.

You should have stopped there.

Tell that to the Ukrainians who I'm sure would love USAF air support and for the 101st to come help out. I'm certain that no matter what the US does, you will complain about it. We could walk top the water and bring democracy and prosperity to Venezuela using the power of love you would still find a reason to complain.
One thing you will never do is actually think of the people on the ground (unless they agree with your specific political ideology). The rest of the world is getting tired of your obnoxious ideological rhetoric. We know you are only complaining because you don't want yet another far left failure out of power.
I'm in no mood to consider any sort of gatekeeping.
Like I said, much of the world is enjoying a lot of 'democracy and prosperity' that you delivered! If you choose a random conflict or crisis anywhere in the world and study its history, you will find your grimy fingerprints all over it, in 8 out of 10 cases. You still feel entitled to speak for the rest of the world as if everything revolves around you, despite being clueless about what they feel about your presence or involvement. And it comes with the customary "when did you ever thank us for what we did" style condescension that has become a persistent joke about you these days. This is exactly the type of hubris that landed you in the current crisis. If you want to see obnoxious ideological rhetoric, read your own statement imagining it's from a foreigner talking about your country. You'll see it if you have the intellectual honesty to do so.
