not to sound like a baby boomer or some other bullshit but the internet really has given children access to things they absolutely should not see. i just heard my ten year old brother make a daddy joke. this really has to stop.
like iâm not joking. iâm like. just so angry i canât articulate it right now but iâm so upset, especially with adults/older teenagers who egg children on in making jokes far beyond their age because they think itâs funny.
Do you see that? Looks like a joke image, right? Well, it isnât.
This happens in Venezuela. It looks like nobody knows how is our crisis, because Iâve talked with a lot of people (Americans, French, Canadian and even Mexican people) who really donât know what is happening.
Iâll explain the imagen.
In Venezuela, we havenât medicines, even in the hospitals. This is because a patient with hypoglycemia is being attended in this way, because the hospital donât have dextrose for the people. This is happening in Caracas, Venezuelaâs capital. But not only in Caracas, is confirmed that in Maracaibo too, and who know where too.
Another cases:
âI take prednisone for animals because I canât found it anywhere and it helps me, isnât logic, but our health canât waitâ
âConfirmed, Iâm medic performing in so many decadency. We evenât have privates places for dextrose for decompensated diabetics and believe me I could write for hours about so many that Iâve lived in the middle of this catastrophic crisis, where personally Iâve take with me a hurted pacient behind of a 350 because we havenât ambulances, where we havenât gloves for protect ourselves and a lot of  things like that, this is the realityâŚ. It must be give âORALLYâ because the drink is rich in glucose (Sugar) for these pacients this imagen showes [She means the soda imagen] how is conected to a micromanager where it doesnât looks very good⌠But itâs valid by an OROGASTRIC probe. As a heroic way, becase like we know âItâs incorrectâ.
I even can give my own testomony. My mom is sick, and she must work everyday, I canât help her because my leg is broken, and my brother must help his own family. Sheâs in pain everyday, and the money is too hard to found. If thereâs money, but thereâs no medicine. And, if thereâs medicine, thereâs no money, because all the treatments are very expensive, like everything, for our inflation on the 1600%.
Iâm sorry, guys. Can you help me to spread this? :C I need that people know about Venezuelaâs situation. Iâm sorry for bother you.
Iâd be very interested in seeing more information on this. This sounds like something out of a post-apocalyptic nightmare novel.
Sure thing, my friend!
Since 2014, our crisis is worse with the health zone. Thereâs no too many medicines, and a lot of operations and treatments are delayed for this same reason.
The hospitals donât have spaces, litters or beds for the patients.
If you go to a farmacy, thereâs no medicine.
A lot of hospitals are in a terrible state.
Supplies that were lacking in public hospitals included sterile gloves and gauze, antiseptics, alcohol for medical use, scalpels, needles, catheters, intravenous solutions, nebulizers and surgical sutures. It was even common to lack basic cleaning supplies (such as bleach), which are essential to ensure a sterile environment in hospitals. Unhealthy conditions have led to in-hospital infections that could have been prevented.
And this is only talking about the health zone.
If we talk about the food shortage and the hyper inflationâŚ
We must do LOOOOOONG lines for hours for buy the basic food. Like flour, sugar, rice, pasta, meat, chickenâŚ.Â
We only can buy one time at the week, for the last number of our ID.Â
If you search in Google âThe next Venezuelaâ, youâll see we arenât a country anymore. We are a level in the shitmeter.
Christ, Iâm so sorry. If there are any charities or reputable organizations we can donate to, Iâd love to share links to them. ;;
Y’all this shortage of necessities shit had been going on in Venezuela for at least a decade. I have never been able to help because I donât know what charities are allowed in or out of Venezuela and I donât trust the people who run those charities to tell the truth.
Please – someone IN Venezuela. Give me a name. A valid website. Something. I will do my damnedest to make something happen, even if itâs just a few families getting fed a few days.
(Love how they voted the fucker out and heâs still in power. Just. So awesome. -_-)
This is the first time I see a post on this site about my country and it breakes my heart⌠Because I want to give you names of charities so you can actually help us but I know people that tried to donate meds and food but our fucking goverment blocked that help. They refuse to accept aid. They are so fucking sick of power that just donât care about us.
The only way we have to fight this crisis is through social media, we use twitter to find meds and food and we came up with a few apps like Donamed or AkiztĂĄÂ to help us find what we need.Â
For the people out there that want to help, like I said⌠itâs hard to tell you how you could do that because thereâs no warranty that weâll get the help. Still, I wonât let them win so I did my research and I found a few websites that I think you guys can trust and can donate to.
http://comparteporunavida.com/Â â> With your donation, this people get formula and nutritional suppliments for children in hospitals and homes in need.
http://www.chamos.org.uk/about-us/Â â> They provide financial support for children to acquire medical, educational or other essential equipment.
http://www.corazonymanosenaccion.com/dona_ahora.htm â> The thing with this site is that the bank accounts they work with are from here, so I donât know the process when itâs an international donation.
The other sites I could find two gofundme created by people like you and me, I hope they mean well and that the money they receive reaches the people who really need it.
If anyone knows more valid websites where people can go and make their donation, please feel free to add it.
And of courseÂ
SPREAD THE WORD! The more we all know about the crisis, the bigger chance we have of making a difference in the lives of those who are suffering.
This explains a little why I want to leave the country please reblog so everyone can see what happens in my country
Guys I KNOW this isnât pretty to look at, but please, please, PLEASE, Iâm begging you; SPREAD IT.
You see, our country has been in a crises for years, but since 2016 it became WAY WORSE and honestly we donât eve know what to do. Every day thereâs ton of people that leave the country in hope to find a better place to live, but because of this, many other countries like Mexico, Colombia, PanamĂĄ and United State have BANNED the venezuelans from getting in, the xenophobia against us getting worse every day. And for those who stay, itâs almost impossible to live if you donât have access to Dollars.
Let me put it in this way; If you have a job here, the minimum salary you get is 5.000.000 BsF. Sounds like a lot, right? Well, it isnât, because with that, you canât even an egg carton, valued in 5.800.000 BsF. Jobs are poorly paid and everything is waaaaaaay too expensive for us to buy it. Plus like you read above, food is hard to find, we donât have medicines here and, a top of that, services like electricity and water fail EVERY TIME, leaving places with over 20 days without water or an entire week without power.
Public transport practically doesnât exist, in the capital we mostly rely in our subway system, which is failing every day, it gets no maintenance so it presents delays and problems all the time. There are only around 1-2 buses in every area of the city, taxis are too expensive and if you think you can just walk to your destination think it twice, because the insecurity wonât let you walk on the street without being an easy victim of a robbery or even worse; a murder.
All the help is blocked, other countries have tried to send us food and medicines but the government just rejects it and doesnât let it in. You could say âbut why did you guys vote for him?â And thatâs the thing, we didnât. They always post fake numbers, cheat in elections and even threat people to vote for them or theyâll stop giving them money and food.
We have been trying to overthrow this government since 2014, in fact, we practically had two civil wars since that date, but thereâs no avail⌠the whole army is with the government, so if someone tries to protest, the army kills them. There have been occasions when we need to hide in our houses, block the windows and turn the lights off because the government is around destroying private property (buildings), shooting, throwing tear gas or the Chavistas got in their motorbikes and start shooting to the apartments and houses with no reason. If you donât believe me, just look for it on Youtube, put âProtestas en Venezuelaâ and youâll see the chaos. We practically live in a post-apocalyptic society.
I could spend here the whole day writing about how terrible is our situation, but I already wrote too much.
If you know someone from Venezuela in your country, ask them how you can help us, they probably still have family here and are trying their best to earn money to be able to take their family out of here.
If you see a Venezuelan artist doing commissions, try to commission them or donating them at least 1 usd, there are high chances that it is the only âproperâ income their family have. (Or theyâre trying to save money to leave the country).
Fight for us in your country, if you see xenophobic acts against us, try to help us and change the mind of the xenophobic person/group.
And more important; ALWAYS spread the information about our situation.
Just had a child say âcircumcise me, captain!â And his mom smacked him in the back of the head and said âIâm so sorry I donât know where he heard that I donât even know if he knows what that meansâ and Iâm thinking about how kids are just walking shitpost generators
