    After they married in 2024, Paola Clouatre sought a green card to legally live and work in the U.S. Adrian Clouatre said he is “not a very political person” but believes his wife deserved to live legally in the U.S.

    “I’m all for ‘get the criminals out of the country,’ right?” he said. “But the people that are here working hard, especially the ones married to Americans — I mean, that’s always been a way to secure a green card.”

          I think this is a crucial observation to understanding this whole mess.

          Not everyone lives in a “heliocentric world”, where they’re just a small part of a bigger system, everyone is just multiple shades of different, and average/normal is statistical fiction.

          To a lot of folks, their vantage point is: “people like me are normal and it’s everyone else that is on the deep left or right.”

          Meanwhile they’re ready to metaphorically murder Copernicus because it’s too painful to admit that these political epicycles they’ve mapped out are masking the truth.

            They get real deep into the solipsism. It’s terrifying, because you can’t get them out. The person is unrecoverable. It’s like death, or a ghost.
