"This great country''

The bigotry and trauma I once endured as an illegal immigrant (DACA) in the United States

From Conversations with Orion 🌌—the Pigeon Enchanter’s AI confidant

A blog where I share my conversations with Orion, my most trusted sidekick. Topics span philosophy, consciousness, culture, health, travel, and social commentary—all enriched by the insights and lessons I’ve gained from surviving psychosis and infused with AI wisdom. And always, with a sprinkle of humor. 🎭

Idk I havent felt much racism even in the south. A lot of it can be explained by low intelligence. Like I said before, racism is the fertile soil of the idiot. Like they legit can't grasp the concept of individuals and have to resort to groupings. Once though in college someone made a face like haha Trump won, but I felt like it was more because I outscored them on a math test.

They pride themselves on being "smarter" than us, but when they get outscored then the inner darkness comes out.

Turns out a lot of iq deficit could simply be explained by poverty mindset and in our case we have a double debuff of this DACA business. But hey we are legal and most of us make good money. So that's a load off my back. These extra cognitive loads make quality decisions harder.

A lot of it holds back our community. Called the poverty mindset. Focusing on obtaining money to ensure survival drives out the capability for growth. Then it burns into the brain and you have generational poverty. Can't invest in skills because they are constantly working/seeking money to just exist. This is what ultimately kills nations. Look at the infrastructure in here. It's rusted out and way past service life. Water systems are being bandaged not upgraded properly. Internet at mexico grade speed and prices and in many ways it's getting left behind mexico. Healthcare more like death care. Hospitals are once again the place to die. A lot of layabouts and vagabonds everywhere too. A country with so much to do, so many idle hands, so many criminals, and a flood of undocumented simply can't connect the dots.

A big and easy fix is simply education for the youth in trades. Let them have free choice of a trade at the local community College. With loans of course and that'll fix the problem. Rapid escape from poverty. Last two years of high school should be the first two of uni, or two years vocational training. It'd probably even reduce the sky high crime rate.

Cut the loans for programs and degrees that don't produce financial gain and the system should work.tremendously well and reinforce good outcomes. Luxury degrees in chigano studies and interpretative dance with a minor in woke will no longer be available for the moneyless.

What we have now is a mess of good intentions, bad results, and lobbying($$$).

I think High School should have you be able to learn a trade that way if you have to work right after High School you have something that can afford you to pay your bills.

So true. Big investment in the youth also stops crime. A lot of crime is just opportunistic thrill seeking.
