The Haitians in Springfield who got accused of eating geese in the park are currently all there to revitalize Ohio's automotive industry. Republicans love their car culture and hate their car manufacturing workforce.

Yet somehow still so poor they have to turn to stealing and eating cats.
It's like a superposition of a superposition.
This is just a misunderstanding of superposition.
A superposition is being in all possible states before "collapsing" into a defined state, after interacting with something (a measuring device).
So Schrodinger's immigrant will be in all possible states; they are obviously lazy welfare bums; whilst simultaneously taking all the jobs; and being so poor that they eat your pets; and having the time to organize groups to go raping; whilst also being trustworthy enough to be a housekeeper or nanny
It was an attempt at a joke, but thanks for the explainer.
No worries, I don't expect many people have an understanding of what superposition actually means.
The Lemmy crowd probably skews towards those that are likely to understand it, but you never know.
Exactly, this meme is misunderstanding what the fear machine is putting out there. To the pathetic population immigrants are taking all the jobs and getting welfare.
This is a tangent of that but I thought superposition was the state. The state of being some amount of many states at once. It isn't positive and negative at the same time but some amount of positive and some amount of negative for some period of time. It's still one state that is just somewhere between a number of states.
You are applying too much classical thinking.
Something in superposition isn't in some unknowable but definite position before measurement.
It is all possible states, at the same time.
Einstein famously did not like the implications of QM, saying "god does not play dice with the universe", though his work on the photo electric effect helped pave the way for QM.
Often immigrants come to do very low-paid jobs so it's no wonder that among that group there'd be more really poor people and those on the dole.
Best thing is, you open the Box and he's doing neither.
Lazy bastards
We don't have enough children, our birth rate is too low. Yet allowing young immigrants to come in? Terrible idea for some reason.
Yeah it's for brown reasons
It's cuz the immigrants are brown.
VSauce ⇒ orange = brown
Guess who's orange
Yeah because they are going to steal your most beloved jobs! Like cleaning and fast food cooking and everyone's childhood career dream of being a toilet lady.
For real though, I could at least follow the logic if it were for high paying, competitive jobs. But these aren't the migrants you are trying to keep out, in fact it is the one every country wants to get in. So why are the migrants the problem who are going to live in relative poverty, agreeing to wage theft, agreeing to horrible living conditions? The ones who won't hardly have enough for a pension.
Also, there is nothing wrong with cleaning, fast food cooking, or toilet ladies. All the more power to them. It is a fucking disgrace that we regard certain unpleasant jobs (that will still need to be done) as low skill, low class, and award them with the lowest pay possible.
People that complain immigrants are taking jobs are complaining about low wages. Immigrants will take low wage jobs when others won't.
Who do you think is employing them and exploiting them via wage theft, I know it's not the left.
Of course not, the left would never own a business
How many liberal contractors do you know?
You're gonna have to define liberal, the US keep changing key definitions
I keep getting told that the "illegals" in my town somehow all at once -
-don't pay any taxes
-get a ton of money from the goverment
-get paid a ton of money at the plant "they all" work at
-collect welfare
-do all of the crime
-never get punished for doing all of the crime
Hmmmm. That kind of sounds like corrupt rich people.
And we're stealing all your white girls too
Do you eat them too? Asking for a friend!
I mean i definitely do in a sense of the word
...how did I fail to see that coming?
Respect though - the world needs more eaters
Every night
While sticking to themselves
Be my guest, I much prefer Asian women.
I would've guessed with that username kek
Yeah but this only happened because they ate Schrodingers cat
The same people who said sleepy Joe is too senile and incompetent to be president yet also masterminded both Covid-19 and committed the biggest election fraud in the history of this nation...
For fascists the enemy is always simultaneously strong and weak
They can be both because the jobs they work pay too little to live on, so they need welfare to survive.
Of course that's true for most jobs that non-immigrants work too, but a few cents more and you're suddenly not eligible for grocery money.
Those fruit picker and toilet cleaning jobs that Americans are dying to do
You forgot the misogyny. The women take the welfare and the men take the jobs and all the families are broken /s
Also is the scapegoat for all crimes
Our enemy is both weak and strong.
The "weak and strong" thing nazis do with Jewish people has always been one of the most ridiculous square circles imo.
They're, apparently, weak, bad, lower, undesirable etc. As such, they should be killed to allow the master race to take charge of everything.
However, apparently, Jewish people are also in charge of all the banks, all the governments and every institution, other than nazi approved ones, as well as being in charge of everything. Ruling from the shadows.
However, by their own logic, that would make the Jews the master race.
Consider this: half the migrants are collecting welfare, and half of them are taking jobs.
For fascism the power they derive is all from the fear generated by an enemy that is both weak yet strong. They're weak and know they're wrong
You forgot they're also criminal masterminds who smuggle in thousands of dollars in drugs over the border, kill hundreds of Americans without getting caught, are master engineers that build massive tunnel networks underground, and scam the government out of billions of dollars via welfare programs.
Honestly I wish immigrants were the people conservatives think they are because they'd have an insane set of skills we could use.
Decades worth of Thanksgiving dinner conversations, summarized.
Ah of course. Americans tie so much success and personal welfare to employment, that's the problem! An UBI would help everyone succeed then we wouldn't be too worried about immigrants /s.
You simply underestimate the duplicitous nature of the [country name] immigrant /s
No matter where you are in the world, this anti-immigrant sentiment is the same.
