It's not illegal to be against the goverment, sometimes, you are more patriotic that way than being with the goverment 100% of the time or just accepting what they do... The people in ukraine are heroes, they started in a pacifist way, there was even one who played a piano in the middle of the whole problem but the president passed some laws that made riots illegal and the intervention of the berkut (Pretty much something like CAP's force that did all the dirt job), it's true that things are exaggerated in some points but that still doesn't change the fact that the people there are fighting for their own freedom and want their country to change, something that no Venezuelan nor myself can't deny because let's be honest, we are a bunch of cowards.
I admire the people that is protesting in Ukraine, because you can easily see that they are organized, and that they really love their country.
Also, being a called a rebel isn't bad, most Latin American leaders were called rebel (or real rebels at some point) like for example our now ex president or Brazil's current president... For example if a riot started right now in Venezuela, I'm 100% sure that the people from other countries won't see us as terrorist but as slow minded people that took too much time to take action...
If your country is as similar to mine, as I believe, it'd be the conservative people in your own country who calls the rioting people terrorists.
The funny thing about @Luxeraph; post is that he says that violence gives the government a free pass to pineapple people up... when they are already being f'ucked up. Also, from what I read in reddit it seems that they're not being "stupid" and destroying stuff for the sake of destroying pomegranate; but because it covers them from police attacks that have already killed others. It's not like they're being mindlessly violent and you should feel ashamed for saying that they are.
