Venezuela just had an election where an incumbent dictator who is supremely unpopular, won with a 'thin' margin. Many organizations and foreign leaders are casting doubt on the authenticity of the election. The incumbent dictator is named in this meme.

...won with a ‘thin’ margin.

And exit polling that was wildly different, showing a landslide for the opposition.

I'm aware of that, but I don't understand OP's meme.

The dictatorial regime is ignoring the results of the election. I see how the meme is a bit ambiguous; I posted it just before going to sleep.

There have been some memes here calling the official result correct. People mostly ignored them, but the OP clearly didn't.

I think he's trying to say that some of us online are fascists who are ignoring what happened like we don't care.

?

That's my best guess. It seemed like an odd meme to me as well.

I think most people are rooting for them to get their country back.

Nah, just those who are actively rooting for Maduro.
