In reply to the discussion: An Ailing Chavez Prays For Time [View all]ChangoLoa
(2,010 posts)80% of the population is mestiza. 10% is "white", 7% "black" and 3% "indigenous".
I've never been in a less racist country than Venezuela, I've traveled quite a lot in my life and I'm what you call an "afro-indio-Venezuelan".
Maybe you could enlighten me about those issues going on in my country? Do you have at least something to back up the "truths" you're spraying?
Quoting you: "they just want the old days back when their class and their skin color(you will vary rarely find an anti-Chavez Afro-or Indio-Venezuelan) automatically mattered more than everyone else. "
50% of the electors voted against Chavez's party during last elections. Which means that, even if all "whites" voted against Chavez (which is absolutely not the case), at least 80% of the opposition voters would still be black, indian or mestizo.
Not ONE of the candidates in the opposition's primary belongs to a party that existed before Chavez.
So finally, I'm curious, how do you get to repeat so many stereotypes concerning a country you've never put a foot in? Do you really have any interest concerning the reallity in Venezuela? It doesn't seem so.
