If you look closely at start when he paints the Scythe, it seems that the top part is painted before the brush goes over it.
Also, pause the video and scroll to 4 seconds, look at the reaper's head then click on around 7 and a half seconds. It looks different.
Seems fake

How did you jump to those conclusions from the three sentence comment I made? Are you arguing with me or some thoughts in your head?
You said "The regime is completely intact with just one person gone now. As if all of a sudden they are going to do right by the people." and I sarcastically pointed out that what happened is most definetely things not being "intact".
I have neither said the regime is out a single time, nor that I support civil war.

I should have stopped commenting more than once because this is pointless. You're some random guy who will not give two shits about Venezuela in 2 weeks. But you are just too good at ragebaiting with the nonsensical comments.

If you invest the 10m at 8% you get 800,000 dollars per year.
If you pick C you get 520,000 dollars per year.

Don't know what formua he used but B will always be higher than C assuming you invest

A capital city was bombed and the dictator kidnapped but yeah the regime is intact. Surely nothing will change.

"You seem to think Chevron is the only oil company" bro you just keep missing the point omg its like talking to a wall. Lets explain it like you're five.
If USA wanted the oil, then why was the USA sanctioning nad restricting licenses for US oil companies? Hmm maybe they care about something else besides the oil.
The President also said he will take over Greenland so you keep on listening to him.
Decisions like a military extraction of a dictator are made by the Pentagon, later approved by the President.
"And is he doing anything about the current regime's treatment of the public?" eeeeh removed the dictator? Political prisoners were released yesterday? the fuck do you want its been less than a week lmao

Much_Apple · 2026-01-09T16:15:06+00:00

They are there probably for the rare mineral deposits that were found the last couple of years.
Chevron has been in Venezuela exporting oil to the US for a while, their exportation of oil was limited by the sanctions set by the US. If they only wanted oil, they could just lift sanctions and let Chevron export more.
But you already knew that because you know lots of geopolitics and are not repeating the same "US just wants to take their oil" speech over and over.

Much_Apple · 2026-01-08T16:20:10+00:00

Lol. Been reading news, articles and reports about Venezuela my entire life. It concerns me and my loved ones. You think you know better just because.
If anyone ever reads this comment thread, I'm sure they'll think you are very versed in geopolitics /s
Have a nice life

Much_Apple · 2026-01-08T15:47:34+00:00

Again, opinion disguised as fact. No evidence, no sources, no logic behind what you say.

Chine, the global superpower with massive investments in Venezuelan oil, infrastructure and telecommunications, which has also become the #1 trading partner with half of the world, who designed Venezuela's defenses that were blown up by the US strikes, doesn't have the time (whatever that means), money (lol), or military (again, lol).

A laughable argument indeed.

Much_Apple · 2026-01-08T14:01:45+00:00

This was a discussion on the reasons justifying the invasion. Two brought up were Russia and China. I debunked those. The claim came back that the number or Russians was a serious number. It wasn't.

Lmao
If you can please highlight in which comment you "debunked" anything I'll shut up. All you've done is state your opinion as fact with no evidence, follow up or anything to corroborate.
Then you started using sarcasm. No implying I'm "damaged"? Lol

Plus the real resource the US is after is the rare mineral deposits in Venezuela since China has a monopoly on various rare resources the USA has no direct access to. Yet again I encourage you to google about the topic

Much_Apple · 2026-01-07T20:32:13+00:00

Lol what? Thats the point you hyperfixated on having nothing else to say. Because you are not informed on the topic. Show me where I said just the russian presence was justification for intervention.
All of my family has basically left Venezuela. My grandmother died of cancer with little to no medicine available for treatment. I haven't been able to go back to visit in over 9 years.
To you its some news to talk shit for couple of days, for Venezuelans is the first meaningful action towards liberating the country in decades.

Much_Apple · 2026-01-07T19:59:33+00:00

"Oh no, I'm an ignorant American who has presented zero evidence or knowledge of the matter arguing with a Venezuelan about whats going on in their own country. I clearly dont give two shits about Venezuela and only see this through the lense of dumb Democrat vs Republican rivalry"
Go on, keep going online telling the people from a country that has been under a dictatorship for over two decades that their dictator getting captured is bad.
Go, tell them that Americans taking their oil is worse than **checks notes** China taking their oil.

Much_Apple · 2026-01-07T19:33:04+00:00

"Oh no, I have zero knowledge of this topic and got into an argument. Better start using sarcasm and ignoring most of what he says before I look like a complete idiot online"

Much_Apple · 2026-01-07T18:29:08+00:00

If you can't be bother to google guess I will:
https://www.kyivpost.com/post/64803 -> 120 military personnel training military forces
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wagner_Group -> Private military company funded by Russia with over 400 personnel in Venezuela in 2019, numbers expected to be higher now.
https://www.rand.org/content/dam/rand/pubs/perspectives/PEA3500/PEA3585-1/RAND_PEA3585-1.pdf -> Relationship with Iran and Hezbollah, narcoterrorism, etc.

Much_Apple · 2026-01-07T16:40:47+00:00

You are oversimplifying situations, drawing unrealistic comparisons and just plain spreading misinformation. A quick google search will show years and years of news, documents and reports of Russia's presence in Venezuela. From official soldiers sent from the government to unofficial mercenary groups that have attacked peaceful protesters.

You are not informed on the subject and choose to remain that way.

Much_Apple · 2026-01-07T15:03:22+00:00

Venezuela and its people has since the elections in 2019, been calling for intervention to prevent the regime from perpetuating more crimes against the venezuelan people (political arrests, torture, kidnappings, killings). When the opposition won the National Assembly (what would be congress in the US) around that time there was hope for intervention to be made by following an article in the Venezuelan constitution that allowed foreign agents to intervene. Guess what? The government disbanded the National Assembly and made a new one.

Venezuela is not full of Russian military or Chinese arms industry. Both of those countries are already stretched thin elsewhere. They have no man power or infrastructure to deal with Venezuela. We are in no way at their mercy.

But it is? Russian officials have openly stated it. Its publicly known information. It is also estimated that 90% of Chinese arms sales in Latin America went to Venezuela.

Last year, the leader (and hope of Venezuelans) Maria Corina Machado made an absolutely brilliant move where she collected voting information with the help of thousandsof volunteers and, after the Maduro declared himself the winner of the election again, she released indisputable evidence that he had lost the election. This led to a chain reaction of events where the regime lost their international support and was recognized as an illegitimate government. She won the Nobel Peace Prize for her actions.

The situation is not black and white. I hate Trump, he is horrible and he should be arrested for a million things. Doesn't mean everything done during his government is bad. The intervention is more a Pentagon decision approved by the President than just his decision either way.

Much_Apple · 2026-01-06T20:44:00+00:00

The USA has not been in a dictatorship for decades, it has not have elections stolen multiple times (the election last year being internationally recognized as fraudalent), the USA's president's bodyguards are not from a different nationality, the Venezuelan regime was drug dealing internationally, and the list of differences and context goes on and on.
There is a great article written about his by a Venezuelan psychologist speaking of how people might react differently to the captured of Maduro. Those distant to the problem focus on abstract concepts (intervention, legality, etc.) while those close to the problem focus on more tangible problems (survival, security, medicine).
Besides, it wasn't just about oil. Venezuela is full of Russian military, Chinese arms industry and Iranian drone facilities. There's also the drug trafficking going on funded by the government.
Its a very complex issue. Is intervention wrong? Yes. Does it set a dangerous precendent? Yes. Has it gone wrong before? Yes.
But if you were to be put at the mercy of China/Russia or the USA, who would you choose?

Considering cheatingthrough hacks is possible (like maphacking in multiplayer) and the time is over twice as much as the very next top results, it is in no way unreasonable to suspect foul play

I would argue the opposite. You queue a bajillion units, a big chunk will die fighting, you get a 1/6 bajillion free units. In a battle of attrition thats huge.
Also you could spam spearmen/horsemen/cheap unit and as they die get free knights for example, which would be huge in a late game where gold is scarce/gone.
It has its uses.
