That’s quite an honor, but Jesse A. Myerson most definitely deserves it. Myerson, if you’ll recall, is the same douchebag who penned the decidedly Marxist-flavored “Five Economic Reforms Millennials Should Be Fighting For” <\/a>last month for Rolling Stone.<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/redsteeze\/status\/436903797332647936\n

Progress?

Um, no. It’s just a perfect illustration of the appallingly rotten conditions in which most Venezuelans find themselves.<\/p>\n

Myerson’s in dire need of a public shaming. Fortunately, reality-based tweeters are up to the task:<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/varadmehta\/status\/436904129769009153\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/coolhandschlute\/status\/436904310123671552\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/cjciaramella\/status\/436907193359929344\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/GOPMommy\/status\/436911727351836672\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/EEElverhoy\/status\/436914335386845184\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/AlexCKaufman\/status\/436903037203148800\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/mooshakins\/status\/436905224813293570\n

Also painful? The fact that in this day and age, there are still people out there who defend a political philosophy that has millions impoverished or dead.<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/GOPMommy\/status\/436912920199323648\n

Some people are just beyond help.<\/p>\n

Editor’s note: Myerson’s name was initially misspelled in one instance. We’ve corrected the error.<\/p>\n
