Venezuelan Players Finding it Impossible to Ignore Trouble at Home

I just read your comment history. You're definitively not a naive freshmen.

You don't even imagine the amount of suffering, hardship, and despair people like you have brought into my life. The insults, the persecution, the assaults, the robbing, the kidnapping... the murders and state violence through unchecked crime and worthless healthcare... have your father ever been kidnapped? What about your uncles? Your cousins? What about yourself? How about twice? Have your pets ever been poisoned or butchered and sprain in your door? Have you ever had a friend shot twice in the gut by a laughing thug saying "you deserve it because you have more than I do"? I can spend hours talking about shit I lived before I left. Days about what my hundreds of family members and friends survive daily, and what they haven't survived.

I don't hate people like you: I fear them. I fear them as I fear white supremacists, as I fear Nazis, as I fear poisonous animals, as I fear the devil.

You can have the last word, I won't engage anymore with an apologist of tyranny such as yourself. Not after you started this discussion in bad faith assuming I'm just some crypto-fascists guy that's repeating his fathers embellished stories: I lived through it.
