Forgive me for being too paranoid on the internet, smh. But yeah, it's huge. I don't want to give (westerners) the idea that it's one small chunk with a few thousand people. That's how they justify exploiting us.
You have to take in consideration the spaces you interact with. Bolivian and Venezuelan comrades exist in big numbers, so do the gusanos. And in these two countries there is a lot of violence against leftists. Avoid rich white Catholic Latines at all cost.
though i'd say brazilian catholics aren't as bad as the evangelicals (still terrible, but we got some good, reasonably prominent examples for caths, whereas the number for evangelicals is basically 0)

it's mostly because i'd expect many more bolivians/venezuelans to be leftists than brazilians and colombians, for instance
