Ah yes, https://mkorostoff.github.io/incarceration-in-real-numbers/
And yet still most Americans think everyone is trying to sneak into their country! You couldn't pay me to live there.
I'm surprised there is not more travel advisory warnings for travel to America ๐ฎโ๐จ
The american continent is actually quite dangerous - if I remember right most of the top 10 dangerous cities are in south- or north america.
Also I once heard that the US is the country with the highest death rate which isn't in a (civil) war...
A lot of people try to get refugee status in the US, but the CBP puts them in open-air prisons in the desert. There are also are least 16 million undocumented immigrants living in the US. They don't all have to "sneak", they just overstay their visas.
The CBP was commissioned explicitly to enforce racial "hygiene" in the US. I don't understand how they weren't disbanded decades ago.
Fuck man...
Listen, a lot of people don't understand the key to the living well in the United States. It's really very simple. Just be rich. You'll have the best life ever.
If you're too stupid to be rich (or you didn't inherit a billion dollars from your parents), blame some poor brown dude for "stealing" a shitty job that you didn't actually want anyways because it's worse and pays less than your shitty job. It won't make anything better at all but at least you'll feel like you understand why everything sucks (even though you actually don't) and you'll have the benefit of living in poverty AND feeling smugly superior to someone else who also lives in poverty for stupid (racist) reasons.
And if you think about it, that sense of superiority is nearly as good (it definitely isn't) as being rich.
Wow.
