DORAL, Fla. — Ronald Bellorin decided to flee Venezuela for the United States during President Donald Trump’s first administration, convinced the Republican leader would protect people like him who had been targeted by an autocratic regime. Now the university professor is worried the Trump administration is going to deport him. The Department of Homeland Security has canceled the temporary protected status given to thousands of Venezuelans who have arrived in recent years. Bellorin’s permission to work in the United States is set to expire in April, and his shield from deportation in September.

    Yeah but they could just like, Google why vuvuzuela has no iPhones and think about it for one minute instead of acting on trauma instincts like some animal the way you assume they do.

    Maybe I’m taking it a bit personally because I’m a Russian immigrant to the UK, I don’t support Putin, and I’m not a fan of the USSR, but I do support socialism because I’m not a moron and have at least some capacity for critical thinking so I can differentiate between different things.

    But even with all that, if they think that Kamala Harris is in any way representing socialism then they’re insane and believe cockamamie nonsense either way.

    The only thing that’s clear is that democracy is showing itself to be a failure right now, having wilfully ignorant and the mentally deranged dictate the course of society was an insane idea in retrospect, all just for the vague possibility of being able to vote them out if they ruin everything which won’t happen with capitalist media who exist to protect the asset class at all costs.

    I’m not sure of the solution.
