acolytes is by definition a 'neoliberal' (if not actually a fascist, capitalist, 1%er, oligarch or some other perjorative). Not enough that between the sympathy factor for Chavez plus the orchestrated use of state resources to plug Maduro's message 24/7 that Maduro is almost certainly going to be elected- there's always the fear on the part of the Chavez adorers that, somehow, just somehow the Venezuelans might actually decide that they've had enough of the 'Bolivarian revolution' and decide to elect someone else. Thus, the knee-jerk response by the Chavez adoring brigade to any post which even factually challenges Dear Leader and/or his followers.
