    Translated: I used to think you were a partisan kneejerk progressive like me then found out you were an anti-statist. You suck.

We grew up in a small farming town in Georgia. Now there was a local stockyard in town, but for some reason my father would always drive to S.C. to go to the stockyard there. One day I asked him why are we driving 45 minutes away when there was a market in town. He said one time before I was born he was there to buy some cows, and every time he raised his hand to bid, the auctioneer would look the other way and not acknowledge him, even after making eye contact. He said he tried to bid on three different cows, and every time he was ignored but the men around him were "noticed" just fine. He said after that day, he would never set foot in that facility again unless it was under new ownership. So, while it's all true to say "Just go to another business that wants your money", or "you're just making the people who hate you rich", I think it is bull$#@!.
    Only the state can treat you like a second class citizen. Otherwise, what you have is people treating you poorly. This is really the crux of the matter. As a citizen you should be entitled to all of the privileges that come with citizenship. Your father was treated shamefully but not as a second class citizen.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    It wasn't a meme. It was a gif of Benedict Cumberbatch raising his hand in response to @Safety saying nobody understood what it's like to be treated like that. As in...I do.
