O this region of the world is gonna seem more prejudiced against Persian woman again for some reason.
Their culty orientation is too toxic for you.
The cult clearly thinks your sort of human being is next to worthless compared to the ones patriarchal white supremacy favors the most, and they act that way about lots of kinds of human beings, too. Who needs their version of happiness. That is not for you in this lifetime. The universe has set you up to say you know you cannot be a part of their cult, and you will be going in a different direction now.

Sorry about the sadness it's been causing.
"Xenophobia (from Ancient Greek ξένος (xénos) 'strange, foreign, or alien' and φόβος (phóbos) 'fear')[1] is the fear or dislike of people who are perceived as being foreign or strange.[2][3][4] It is an expression that is based on the perception that a conflict exists between an in-group and an out-group and it may manifest itself in suspicion of one group's activities by members of the other group, a desire to eliminate the presence of the group that is the target of suspicion, and fear of losing a national, ethnic, or racial identity."
"Xenophobia" - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenophobia
Something you could call God expects more of us right now.
I thank God for my disadvantages because I cannot fit in with their ways. It's impossible. It's very insulting. It's very hurtful. It's very painful. It's very dehumanizing. But God knows a greater swath of humanity needs to be seen and acknowledged, and the pain was necessary to experience in order to get to know more about the wounds that need to be healed.
Their ways are still some rough stuff to deal with.
They're still being so arrogant and xenophobic. So many more kinds of grandchildren deserve so much more acknowledgement then they were taught to give them, but they are always taking and taking and taking while the ones they can't acknowledge are the ones who are keeping things going. It's not friendly enough for the life mission that the Universe is asking from us in this era. People can be so much more open to knowledge of other kinds of human beings than that.
Other people with a capacity for experiencing some big feelings have also had this experience though.
People you wanted to love and did love have run away because they felt they didn't need to know all the things that you felt you needed to know more about. The universe wants you to know more about these things. The universe designed you to want to know more about them.
I need more because I feel more but some other people feel more, too. And reading more sometimes helps me remember that.
Sometimes I get the heartache because I have to remember this need I have.
I need to know more. I need more acknowledgement of some things than some other people seem to need. It really is hard, and it really does hurt, but they just don't seem to need it like I need it. I guess I was either born this way or my life circumstances have shaped me to feel this way.

And she later retracted that when he ran for president,' Kelly said."
"Ivana, the president’s late ex-wife, once used the word 'rape' to describe an incident between herself and her ex-husband in 1989. The harrowing incident was later detailed in 1993’s biography Lost Tycoon: The Many Lives of Donald J. Trump, written by reporter Harry Hurt III. Hurt said it was 'a violent assault,' and alleged that Ivana told some of her closest confidantes, 'He raped me.'”

Not very impressed by what they're doing to so many daughters' human rights these days.
"My genetic superiority s**** on your humanity again: a crash course in being a good product of Your Proudly Patriarchal Society."
That still doesn't encompass the full experience. But it's somewhere to start, and would be educational for some people.
If you put those electrodes on you that make you experience the really terrible menstrual cramps and then have somebody that you really care about be super mean to you afterwards on account of how the ignorance and brainwashing has warped many human beings' perceptions...
It's been strange on so many occasions to see and experience such an attitude.
It's weird how your version of God and Jesus is always telling you to ignore x-types of people and lift up y-types of people.
Okay, so here's something else that just came up for me.
One time, I was really going through some stuff and I had a really bad dream, and I was like a little child brought to my knees and it was because I was traumatized and I couldn't go back to my old job. And His Better Than Most of Themness was good and compassionate. And I was grateful. But that could not last. Around the same time, I had awful menstrual cramps. And nobody was checking on me to make sure those got better and I felt sad about that and I expressed something like that and his first reaction was to think that I was being a childish little baby. Really, right after I'd been through some very horrible pain, and he could not have any empathy and neither did the women in his family, and he's better than most of them. And I still hate that he did that, and if I go back to that instant, I haven't forgiven him and I kick him in the head and I know his family was warped by patriarchal society to act like women are less important than men, and he's still better than 95 to 99% of the men that I've met. The ignorance, the audacity, the cruelty. The amount of physical pain you can go through and still get treated like it means nothing. By the "good" ones. That is a big lesson to learn about what the patriarchal society has done to some people's humanity sometimes. The patriarchy is terrible.
No wonder they act like some really rich guy who raped a 19-year-old girl and got sone kids killed on a helicopter crash when the helicopter couldn't shouldn't have been flying, they act like this one is the girl dad of the century. The paycheckee needs people to worship violent men. They are so sick in the head sometimes just because patriarchy did that to them. You know stuff like that makes menstrual cramps worse when you're already recovering from abusive situations happening to both your body and to other people's bodies, because you actually have empathy for other people because you had to have empathy for other people in order to survive the certain kind of circumstances / childhood you inherited. And a lot of parents are incredibly ignorant about this kind of thing, and patriarchy wants them to be ignorant. Patriarchy wants them to be content with love of money and houses being at the top of their list, too Yeah, that's not really a very high form of love in my opinion.
So brave, so honest. So ready to go to the next level.
"Having the ability to unsee a lot of kinds of human beings has been extremely important trait to have on my career path in order to succeed in this particular type of screwed up Patriarchal Society."
And now I don't even know why I'm getting better.
I went through so much pain and horror sometimes just because patriarchal society wanted certain kinds of people (like me, I am one of them) to suffer and feel punished and outcast. I felt personally, physical pain and mental and emotional pain. I felt the pain of seeing others suffer even worse than I was suffering, on numerous occasions. I was at the bottom of the barrel. I was least important. I was degraded by the world's holiest book just for the body I was born in. I had people who should have been friends treat me like nothing. Out of ignorance, mostly. I had my hopes raised and then dashed. I was abandoned. I was treated like I was worth nothing because I didn't act the way patriarchal society wants you to act. Patriarchal brainwashing ruins everything. Survivor of a sick patriarchal society psyche is real.

That all of my best, most well-connected, highly talented brothers worked very hard to deserve their master - of - the - house, masterpiece - making status. But now I've seen the light! That must be why music came to me in the shower, as I was being pelted down by the warm rain of love (in the form of advanced 21st century hydraulics, which we also can collectively appreciate). It was one of the most essential songs playing in the background to many a young woman's coming of age in the '90s.

Anyways, it does seem like the right combination of genetics and years of suffering can do interesting things to your personality and outlook on life, but in a way, it might all be for the best if it contributes to the evolution of humanity. This is a more optimistic point of view than some of the other alternatives, right? At least, it seems to be a perspective that's going in towards a generally more positive, upward trajectory, kind of direction.

Brutal Patriarchal Bullies.
"Sixteen-year-old Kerly Sosa Rivero was asleep at home on Detroit’s eastside last month when federal immigration agents burst in. They pointed a gun at her and threw her cousin, also 16, to the ground.
The agents were looking for another migrant. They detained Kerly and three family members, despite the fact all four had upcoming court dates to make formal pleas for asylum from brutal conditions in Venezuela.
Local activists have called the arrests 'kidnappings.' But for a Trump administration determined to boost deportations, they were business as usual. The enforcement dragnet routinely sweeps up people who would once have been low priorities.
'My daughter has so many dreams,' Angélica Rivero, Kerly’s mother, told Outlier Media. 'She wants to learn English and go to university.'

Cat box, gunfire, falling down stairs.
"JUNE 2, 1944
Dear Kitty,
'If you're going to the attic, take an umbrella with you, preferably a large one!' This is to protect you from 'household showers.' There's a Dutch proverb: 'High and dry, safe and sound,' but it obviously doesn't apply to wartime (guns!) and to people in hiding (cat box!). Mouschi's gotten into the habit of relieving herself on some newspapers or between the cracks in the floor boards, so we have good reason to fear the splatters and, even worse, the stench. The new Moortje in the warehouse has the same problem. Anyone who's ever had a cat that's not housebroken can imagine the smells, other than pepper and thyme that permeate this house.
I also have a brand-new prescription for gunfire jitters: When the shooting gets loud, proceed to the nearest wooden staircase. Run up and down a few times, making sure to stumble at least once. What with the scratches and the noise of running and falling, you won't even be able to hear the shooting, much less worry about it. Yours truly has put this magic formula to use, with great success!
Yours, Anne M. Frank"
