The president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, said that fascism arises in societies that are not able to completely break up the old bourgeois State.
He paraphrased the Italian philosopher Antonio Gramsci and said that in revolutionary crises, the old political class does not fully die and the new is not fully born.
“Since humanity in general terms has not been transformed, since we have not yet been able to create a new State that will be efficient, effective and of a popular character … it is in this situation that the ‘zombies’ emerge who come to deceive us with harmful anti-human projects in their worst form of expression that we already know: fascism,” President Maduro stated during a work meeting on security held in Caracas on Friday, February 7.
In this regard, he said that in Argentina the national and popular project suffered an exhaustion, and the people were exhausted with a government that “did not take a single step in favor of the people.”
“In the scenario of the exhaustion of popular hope, Mussolinis, Hitlers and Mileis emerge,” President Maduro stressed.
He added that the president of Argentina, Javier Milei, is a Nazi who “enjoys the suffering of the humble, the needy, the hurt.”
He also considered the extremist Venezuelan opposition as a featured of the fascist outbreak in Latin America, and added that this political sector “is the worst criminal expression of fascism.”
