Why don’t they overthrow the government?
You know why not.

They have already been disarmed
The currency is almost worthless
And the Government has closed the border to Columbia

If you visit , bring your own toilet paper, or use the local currency
Why dont they overthrow the government?

‘Why dont they overthrow the government?’
BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY GUNS! ONLY THE GOVERNMENT HAS GUN! THUS A PERFECT SCENARIO FOR SOCIALIST.
You can’t continue to force this kind of sh*t on people unless you have a lot of guns and the people do not have any. They still overthrew the USSR but it was very difficult and took a lot of courage.
