Don't worry I'm sure there are pics of Columbians celebrating their sovereignty being violated that will be used to convince you this isn't a clusterfuck
As a Colombian: I can assure you there are a lot of colombians celebrating it.
no /s, no joke.
As a saiyan.... Wtf
The colombian rightwingers are also USA-bastion-of-the-free-market-and-best-country-on-earth bootlickers. The would not mind getting Petro removed by force and getting a USA puppet, actually, they'd love it.
And it is not a small amount of people.
So many otherwise chill or politically checked out Colombians turn into
the moment you bring up Venezuela or Venezuelans, especially since the migration crisis worsened in the past decade. It doesn't help that during the Uribe years, Colombian media essentially painted Venezuela as Nazi Germany, who would invade Colombia at the slightest opportunity.
Even my relatively progressive family will inevitably say something to the effect of "ever since Petro is in power the country is going to shit" when we have a chat. If I push them on it, they'll point at crime, the internal conflict getting worse, or prices being high, and refuse to elaborate any further. I'm sure they wouldn't be dancing in the streets if Bogota got bombed and Petro got got, but they wouldn't criticize it either. They would say something to the effect of "you know all politicians are criminals, this is what happens when you're corrupt".
