Mask off.
What happens when the American dream morphs into a nightmare you didn’t sign up for?
for years,
we believed hard work and a degree guaranteed stability.
this christmas,
reality delivered a stocking full of coal.
muskrat and “that indian jackal” made it painfully clear…
White males,
once the gatekeepers of tech,
are now considered too outdated to keep up.
in a field they once dominated,
they’ve been benched.
the message:
They’re too lazy and stupid to be hired.
The reason top tech companies often hire foreign-born & first-generation engineers over “native” Americans isn’t because of an innate American IQ deficit (a lazy & wrong explanation). A key part of it comes down to the c-word: culture. Tough questions demand tough answers & if…

instead of prioritizing americans,
corporations are starting to import their workers now.call any customer service right now and you’ll be greeted by an indian voice.
they dangle those visas like carrots,
work them like slaves,
and pay them pennies for the labor.
Remember when we were celebrating those who just up and quit their jobs?
once those imported workers settle in and they build their networks,
they hire their own friends,
family,
and skinfolk.
here’s what i can’t stop thinking about tho:
Boomers told us to “pull yourself up by your bootstraps”.
only for this new economy to rip those bootstraps off entirely.
We can work hard,
earn the degrees,
and follow every rule in the book and the excuse will be:
“Sorry,
you’re too expensive.”
not only that,
the powers that be are coming for education as well.
so the new american dream?
it’s not about what those boomers were spitting to us anymore.
It’s about building a following.
being an influencer,
diving into sex work,
or streaming video games feels more attainable and lucrative.
it’s the “kim kardashian school for the narcissistic and slightly gifted“.
while other countries train their people to be sharper and more cunning,
we’ve been dumbed down into distraction.
and what about those who aren’t tech saavy or hate social media?
They’re pretty much fucked because AI and cheaper labor are reshaping the workforce faster than anyone can adjust.
so the american dream is has vanished before our eyes.
those two and now ( x the new president ) told us where they stand.
“You better start suckin’,
fuckin’,
and showing feets on camera if you want to be a millionaire out here!”
so now that we know where this circus is headed:
What are we going to do about it?
