That woman is extremely dumb. This reads like what a dumb person does when they're anxious and racist and have no idea how to deal with that or extricate themselves from the situation.

also some white people go loving nuts when they are ignored/ not the center of attention. I think the thing that irritates her the most is nobody at the plant giving a single gently caress about her.

quote:When the Pacmac or the DSI Portioning System acted up, he was the one who knew what to do, not because he was a savant, but because he’d worked at it, day after day, which was why he became so frustrated when workers in that department didn’t ask him for assistance. They wanted help only from Juan Leon, the shift’s lone Latino mechanic, a Puerto Rican transplant whom Venson genuinely liked and appreciated, but who didn’t know those machines. Venson did. So why didn’t they ask him for help? Why did they want solely another Latino? How did it get to be this way? Good News, Venson.... I think I may have just cracked this case wide open!

Grape posted:Literally the only actual problem this girl is facing is linguistic, and there is zero threat of English being replaced by Spanish. Jesus you can use Duolingo for free. She could learn enough Spanish in a month to talk to her coworkers at a basic level at least, and I bet they'd love to learn a little English too. Also, the irony of these people having no sympathy for immigrants while simultaneously experiencing a place where most people don't look like you or speak your language is just incredible.

There's literally no excuse for being insular in pennsylvania if you're near a city. The northeast has Scranton and Hazleton. The southeast has Philly, Allentown and a whole bunch of other almost cities. Alright you got me for the middle portion because the only thing going for middle pennsylvania is Centre county which when I was there was busy trying to cover for child sex abuser football coach. The West has Erie and Pittsburgh. Which are both huge and have their own almost cities around them.

Of course the white MAGA crowd think it's ethnic cleansing being forced to learn another language.

Like, there's even a line in that article about how she knows it's her fault, and I also guarantee there's academic anxiety there because she hated school and wasn't good at it. She also claims to be shy so that's a pile of poo poo to deal with but after all that she does understand that she is at fault, at least to some degree. That mental wall must be enormous if she can't even work up the courage to try. The cartoonishly racist boyfriend probably isn't helping.

Can't wait until we are like, "Si, pues estos pinches gabachos are like 'Hahaha, I love Cracker Barrel, hahaha, pickup truck and I hosed my dog, verdad, Taylor, estupido?" Taylor had put in a transfer with the dog poo poo pickup team, exactly to avoid this kind of abuse.

Christ that article was depressing, and not for the reasons the author wants it to be. I work in a rehab and we occasionally get people who only speak Spanish. So even though I don’t speak it (and wish I did) I still try to empathize with them and get to know them like I would any other client. I think they, like any other human being on Earth, enjoy it when you take an interest in their lives instead of acting like they are literal aliens infiltrating America. That said, I can understand being anxious and scared when you don’t know what people are talking about. But ffs just get an English-Spanish dictionary and start asking basic questions instead of isolating yourself.

My favorite part about immigrant hatred on the parts of rural whites is that they embody all the "bootstraps" philosophy Trump retards claim to believe in. My father in law came over with 10 bucks in his pocket, found work on a ranch which paid absolute poo poo, but spent 30 years working in the sun and saving. Now he's got a two story house, 3 kids that went to college, and a nice new pickup truck. He's "retired", but he loves working so much that he takes under the table jobs doing landscaping, because he can't chill.
