I don't think having a US President appoint a viceroy after extrajudicial killings and blatant acts of aggression is particularly... rights-respecting.
Where are your sources? A lot of the people on the ground in Venezuela seem to disagree. The article has one source to back you.

After decades of repression, Venezuelans deserve a prompt transition to a rights-respecting democracy, led by Venezuelans, where their freedoms and right to participate in free and fair elections are respected.

Remember how appalled we all were in 2022 when Russia completely unprovoked attacked Ukraine? That is what we’re doing tonight with Venezuela. We are the bad guys here. Everyone who supports this is supporting unprovoked murder. Fuck every last one of them

I think "Opposite political views" is doing the heavy lifting.
the thing is, “differing political views” used to be about what percentage to tax high earners and not whether brown people are humans

Don't take this to mean Signal itself is compromised, the records came from a “sensitive source with excellent access.” Assume there's a mole in any big Signal group.
A “joint situational information report” from the FBI and the New York police department (NYPD), dated 28 August 2025, quoted from a chat on Signal, the encrypted messaging app, and also characterized the court watchers as “anarchist violent extremist actors.”
