Immigrants Are Not the Problem. You’re Being Redirected.
How Elites Redirect Anger to Protect Power
Immigrants are not why wages are low, rent is insane, or healthcare ruins people. That story exists to redirect anger away from the people actually running the system.
1) Immigrants as a Target, Not a Cause
If immigrants had the power people accuse them of having, they would be writing policy. They’d be setting the minimum wage. They’d be controlling housing rules and healthcare pricing. They don’t. They don’t own the corporations, they don’t run Congress, and they don’t decide what bosses pay.
What they are is visible, vulnerable, and politically weak. That makes them a perfect emotional target. Anger needs somewhere to land, and power makes sure it lands somewhere safe.
So instead of asking why wages barely moved for decades, people get trained to look sideways and blame someone else who is also trying to survive.
