Comment on YSK the Venezuelans community in the US is not representative of Venezuelans as a whole.

      You guys are arguing different points.

      ICE will deport anyone it wants, papers or not.

      Venezuelians with papers apparently don’t give a shit if they get deported.

      These aren’t mutually exclusive facts.

        Thank you. That’s exactly my point. But apparently, non-Venezuelans are ready to tell me, a Venezuelan in his 40s, that I don’t know what I’m talking about.

        i’m saying thanks to the power dynamic here (think: “exploitation or stuff HR would frown at…”) - the dynamic existing means the folks cheering in the street cannot be considered truly cheering. it can only be considered, at best, an example of consent being manufactured thanks to that ICE enforced power dynamic. 😬

      Lol, “a Venezuelan who was born and raised in Venezuela, saw it fall in the hands of fascism, then moved to the U.S., got a Master’s degree, and had to take a U.S. civics test to become an American citizen, doesn’t know what he’s talking about”.

      Sure, man.
