So I was in my car and venting about how I hate Americans because of the vast amount of shit and hate and discrimination I’ve had to deal with on top of people here not believing in mental health problems so I’m expected to perk up magically even tho I’ve experienced threats of violence and dehumanization. People where I live are so hateful that if I said that last sentence out loud they would get angry because they don’t care what happens to people like me.

So even at home I have to stay as quiet as possible because there is no privacy here from the neighbors or “family.” My car is the only place I can vent. On the way to work I said I hate Americans and somehow my boss knew because after that he kept making comments about how he and I are just dumb Americans, something he never said before and he normally doesn’t talk like that.

Then he tried to guilt me because he’s black and his ancestors didn’t choose to come here.

Anyone of any background can go thru shit and no one can say otherwise and if they do then they’re just wrong. Nothing will change that reality and there are no excuses for treating people like shit.

    Is it a company car that might have been bugged? Were you not alone in the car?

    What’s your theory on how your boss knows you said that in the car? I’m assuming you were alone in the car right?
