    Yet somehow still so poor they have to turn to stealing and eating cats.

    It’s like a superposition of a superposition.

      This is just a misunderstanding of superposition.

      A superposition is being in all possible states before “collapsing” into a defined state, after interacting with something (a measuring device).

      So Schrodinger’s immigrant will be in all possible states; they are obviously lazy welfare bums; whilst simultaneously taking all the jobs; and being so poor that they eat your pets; and having the time to organize groups to go raping; whilst also being trustworthy enough to be a housekeeper or nanny

        It was an attempt at a joke, but thanks for the explainer.

          No worries, I don’t expect many people have an understanding of what superposition actually means.

          The Lemmy crowd probably skews towards those that are likely to understand it, but you never know.

        Exactly, this meme is misunderstanding what the fear machine is putting out there. To the pathetic population immigrants are taking all the jobs and getting welfare.

        This is a tangent of that but I thought superposition was the state. The state of being some amount of many states at once. It isn’t positive and negative at the same time but some amount of positive and some amount of negative for some period of time. It’s still one state that is just somewhere between a number of states.

          You are applying too much classical thinking.

          Something in superposition isn’t in some unknowable but definite position before measurement.

          It is all possible states, at the same time.

          Einstein famously did not like the implications of QM, saying “god does not play dice with the universe”, though his work on the photo electric effect helped pave the way for QM.

      Often immigrants come to do very low-paid jobs so it’s no wonder that among that group there’d be more really poor people and those on the dole.

    I keep getting told that the “illegals” in my town somehow all at once -

    -don’t pay any taxes

    -get a ton of money from the goverment

    -get paid a ton of money at the plant “they all” work at

    -collect welfare

    -do all of the crime

    -never get punished for doing all of the crime

    Consider this: half the migrants are collecting welfare, and half of them are taking jobs.

    Ah of course. Americans tie so much success and personal welfare to employment, that’s the problem! An UBI would help everyone succeed then we wouldn’t be too worried about immigrants /s.

    You simply underestimate the duplicitous nature of the [country name] immigrant /s
