    This is the problem. We get told, “Group A is all bad!” Then we see people from Group A living nearby and they aren’t bad.

    So we think, “they must be the good ones, the exceptions.”

    What we should be thinking is, “why did they lie about Group A? They’re obviously just people who want to live their life.”

      Not all of them are good. Thankfully the lowlife and criminal scum went to live in a different district than the one I live in, a district I don’t even have intentions to visit because it was already dangerous before their arrival xd. As long as the bad ones don’t get to my neighborhood, I think it’s alright.

        How do you take the “it was already dangerous” and combine it with the fact that the Venezuelans in your neighborhood are cool, and still come away thinking Venezuelas are ruining your country?

        Xenophobia is a powerful force. Don’t let it be. Immigrants are just people, just like all other people. Some commit crime. So do some people everywhere! That doesn’t make immigrants bad.

          I think it’s because we now have venezuelans murdering people who don’t pay them their excessive and illegal lending fees, stealing stuff in the streets and more. The local gangs seem to have disappeared and it’s mostly el tren de aragua stuff nowadays. Stupid local criminals were not even able to keep the foreigners away to keep their turf in their own hands…
