This 60-year-old edgelord

I am living in Mexico but I lived in the US for a long time and I'm from England originally (standard white man). I met some 16 year old Venezuelan kid at the Belize border who was coming to Mexico to get out of the mess over there. He didn't have enough money for the bus to Merida, so I gave him a ride down to the station and then paid for his bus ticket. He started texting me a lot, asking questions about business and building things, like he looked up to me. Then he started talking in weird right wing meme speak after a while, like an ignoramus American kid from the internet. I asked him about it, and I think he'd just been online speaking to the wrong people. I told him if he starts believing that shit, I'm gonna have a hard time being his friend. Then I took a long time trying to explain what he was actually getting behind - he still ran with it, so I just ignore his messages now. I was about to tell him to come to my workshop and let him apprentice under me and learn how to support himself and his family comfortably..now I can't even communicate with him because he's constantly dropping this unrelatable right wing bullshit into every other sentence.

That's the long boring story of how a poor Venezuelan kid became a 4chan Trumptard and shot himself in the foot.
