The general secretary of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), Diosdado Cabello Rondón, denounced the communication tactics of the Venezuelan opposition through digital platforms.

During the broadcast of his program, Con El Mazo Dando argued that the opposition leadership does not act out of political conviction, but rather under a purely commercial strategy designed to generate economic income at the expense of polarization and the suffering of the people.

He explained in detail the mechanism of interaction and economic benefit that these sectors pursue with each publication. “I start taking them out here... They are going to increase... What is it called? Your views? The thing is that, and what they do, is to monetize,” he warned and lamented the lack of scruples of these characters.

“They monetize leftovers, they monetize hate messages, they monetize messages of condolence. What will be the next level of perversion in networks? Well, they use it on all networks,” he said.

He also exposed the fictitious nature of the internal disputes that right-wing spokesmen usually display in the digital environment, assuring that even their conflicts are planned to attract attention.

“They don't care about anything at all. When they fight, it is so that they mention that they are fighting, so that their views increase,” he said categorically, dismantling the supposed relevance of opposition debates in the real political scene.

Faced with this, he called on the population not to be deceived by false opinion matrices or by analysts who lack political and academic weight. “The truth is that anyone who takes any analysis of these characters in politics seriously, for God's sake! , and are presented as geniuses and figures. Sometimes ignorance is daring, but good... they are fights between them,” he concluded, confirming the need to maintain a solid and conscious approach to digital manipulation.
