Why do Venezuelans get so much hate in the USA and Latin America?

Why do Venezuelans get so much hate in the USA and Latin America?

This is something I’ve noticed a lot online lately. It feels like Venezuelans receive a different level of hate compared to many other immigrant groups, both in the U.S. and across Latam.

I understand that large-scale immigration can create problems:

  • pressure on jobs and housing
  • crime concerns
  • bad experiences with some migrants
  • governments failing to manage migration properly

But sometimes it feels like people generalize millions of Venezuelans because of viral videos, politics, or the actions of a small group.

Hey Spark fam

I drive Spark with a 2016 Corolla and got tired of doing math in my head every time an offer pops up. Started building my own calculator app and figured I'd ask you all what to add before I go too deep.

**What it does right now:**
- Type the pay + miles → instantly tells you if it's worth taking 🔥👍🤔❌
- Calculates real net pay AFTER gas cost (uses your MPG + gas price)
- Custom verdict thresholds — you set your own minimum $/mile
- Shows $ per mile (gross AND net), gas cost, the works
- Custom number pad so you don't have to fight with the phone keyboard
- Save orders to build a history

**Stats it tracks:**
- Today / This Week / This Month / All Time totals
- Net earnings, total miles, average $/mile per period
- Your "Best Day" automatically highlighted
- Live session timer with $/hour calculation

**Smart prediction:**
After 3+ saved orders, it compares each new offer to YOUR personal average. So instead of generic advice, it tells you "this one is 25% better than your usual" or "way below your average."

**What I want to add but want your input first:**
- 📸 Screenshot reader (snap the offer screen, auto-fills everything)
- 🗺️ Map of your delivery zones / hot zones over time
- 📊 Acceptance rate tracker
- 💸 Tip vs base pay split (when known)
- 🚗 Wear & tear cost beyond just gas (oil, tires, depreciation)
- ⏰ Best hours/days analysis from your own data
- 🔔 Notification when an order beats your top 10%

**Questions for you:**

  1. What's the #1 thing that pisses you off about deciding on offers?
  2. What's YOUR rule of thumb — flat $/mile minimum? Tip percentage? Distance cap?
  3. Would you actually screenshot orders, or is that more friction than it's worth?
  4. Anything you wish existed but doesn't?

Mods: please remove if not allowed, just want honest input from people who know.
