So it looks like there's a mass exodus from venezuela. Did some reading on this maduro fellow and its the same old same old of humble beginnings as a union leader to ruling with an iron fist jailing and or killing political opponents, critics and anti government protestors.

Anyone here from venezuela with more insights on whats going on?

The continuing exodus of millions of Venezuelans is reaching “a tipping point” as the response to the crisis remains critically underfunded.

More than 5.6 million have left the country since 2015, when it had a population of 30 million, escaping political, economic and social hardships. It has become the largest external displacement crisis in the region’s history, and the most underfunded.

“Never in our history in Latin America have we faced such movement of people out of a country that was one of the richest in the region and a country that is not at war,” said Eduardo Stein, special representative of the UNHCR, the UN refugee agency, and the International Organization for Migration (IOM). “Whatever fails in one of the largest and richest countries in the subcontinent is going to affect the rest of the region. Latin America will never be the same.”

Youre likely leaving out a bunch of key information. But I guess the only thing we're supposed to get from this post is "thuggery bad. Socialism thuggery."
