The real world
Timothy 2022-03-24 08:01:05
This is the American side. The United States was once the world's largest country, and the US dollar is still the world's number one currency. This is the dream of many people around the world. For the left, he left his own country, thinking that he was born in the wrong place, and that if he changed his place, he could change his destiny. People usually always think about what they get from their side and get everything, but people usually don't think about what they have paid for everything around them. This is not a question of fairness or injustice, but a causal cycle. Anywhere in the world, there will be a dark side that you don't know, because that's what's real.

[in order to convince the immigration adjudicator that he is entitled to receive Green Card, Gavin is requested to demonstrate his familiarity with the Jewish religion by reciting "Kaddish" prayer - a Jewish prayer, most of it Aramic. Since the atheist Gavin has little knowledge of Jewish religion, he recites instead a mishmash of prayers, blessings, hymns and non-religious songs in Hebrew]

[first lines]
Max Brogan: What do you want me to do?
San Pedro ICE Processing Agent: Look, it's not my problem.
Max Brogan: All I'm asking, Stevens, is did the old man get seen to? He was sweating and shaking when I put him on the bus. He said his arm felt numb.
San Pedro ICE Processing Agent: Jesus Christ, Brogan, everything is a humanitarian crisis with you. You've signed off on more orders of recognizance than the rest of your unit combined.
Max Brogan: Don't give me that shit. The man's about to have a goddamn heart attack. I want him seen to.
