RED REM

Gah, such a bizarre dream earlier.

1) Was plotting to assassinate the CEO of MERS.

2) A crazy woman with scarlet hair had some sort of gun from the future which didn’t fire bullets but rather beliefs. And the particular certainty that she was firing into a throng of people is the unshakeable and absolute conviction that the person hit is the vice president of the United States.

3) She also had a robot that was driving around erratically and screaming about “You weren’t supposed to fire that gun!” It seemed very appalled by her actions.

4) What the hell.

I was going to write something longer about immigration, but I just don’t have time.

But wanted to point out that it isn’t xenophobia to not want neoliberal policies to be inflicted on your community by way of millions of immigrants being imported either to purposely destabilize society (crisis capitalism by way of immigration as in Germany) or to lower the prevalent wages of the working class.

Economists say this doesn’t happen. However, economists can’t be trusted at all and from the data I’ve examined closely there’s some very fancy shuffling of numbers around to conceal what’s really happening. (For instance, as the rich get richer the average wage rises despite millions more not having jobs at all.)

Neolib forces have very cleverly appropriated the language of the left (xenophobia, racism) to battle against the very natural urge people have no to be made redundant, homeless and worthless to society when desperate immigrants arrive by the millions only to engage in a Tennysonian “red in tooth and claw” competition for low-wage helotry.

And the left has fallen for it completely by equating any opposition at all to anything except wide open borders as racism. In their eyes, if you actually desire your children to not be destitute and unemployed, you are irredeemably racist and bad.
