In a nutshell, Vivek said America sucks so we need tens of thousands more H1B visas, so Big Tech can hire more cheap engineering talent from India and China. It was pointed out to him that there's plenty of home grown STEM talent looking for jobs. It's just not as cheap. Nobody really goes for the whole "import more cheap foreign labor to drive down wages" thing since globalism died. Now everyone from Nikki Hailey to Catturd is dragging him for being a sellout and a dumbass. 1

The “tech right” basically pivoting to “replacement, but legally” is not terribly unpredictable but still disheartening. From Vivek it can be expected: everyone is tribal about some group, it might as well be your own. From Elon it’s incredibly disappointing but at the end of the day he at least has allowed himself to get ratio’d on his own platform for his take. The average IQ on the subcontinent is 76. This means the number of “geniuses” coming from the 1.4 billion people in India has a hard cap somewhere in the range of 1,400 (and that’s with a pretty loose definition of “genius.”)
Tiberius Posted Friday at 03:57 PM Posted Friday at 03:57 PM More immigrants? Ha ha, I knew this administration wasn't serious about immigration. All pure BS
sherpa Posted Friday at 04:00 PM Posted Friday at 04:00 PM The "pure BS" is you. Nobody has ever taken a stand against the legal immigration of skilled talent to our nation....Ever. 1

When Trump wins "Worst Prez" ever award, his lies about Mass Deportations will be a reaon why

Nobody has ever taken a stand against the legal immigration of skilled talent to our nation....Ever. Nobody is carping about the O-1 or whatever. The H-1B is a complete scam and serves only to squeeze Americans. There are H-1Bs working in paid internships. Why do they need to do an internship if they're "skilled?"
US Egg Posted Friday at 06:50 PM Posted Friday at 06:50 PM Two kids work for German based engineering companies, another worked in immigration law mainly expediting student/work visas for bigger tech co. Homegrown stateside STEM talent development is an issue.
B-Man Posted Friday at 06:54 PM Posted Friday at 06:54 PM I disagree with a lot of what Vivek Ramaswamy says here, though there’s some uncomfortable truth there, too. But here’s the thing. I don’t want to throw Vivek out of the America First movement. I’m not mad because he said some things I don’t agree with. We’re building a new coalition and we’re not all going to agree on everything all the time. We need to act like adults and debate things, even uncomfortable things. We’re not leftists. We’re not gonna cry when somebody says something we don’t necessarily agree with. We’re gonna figure it out. And that’s why we’re gonna win.
Tiberius Posted Friday at 07:45 PM Posted Friday at 07:45 PM MAGA activists might have gotten duped, but they won, and they don't care. This is such a easy problem to solve. Dems should rat f*** them by going to the meat packing plants, agricultural fields with black vans, scary looking dudes dressed in black suits, spread rumors there will be a big lock up, torture, shooting, turning immigrants into soap, and watch the immigrants leave their jobs. Higher food prices, thanks MAGA might

Working 80-100 hours per week for substandard wages is not "culture." It's the result of a sick society. Eleventy billion Indian spreadsheet makers do not cure a sick society. Quite the opposite, in fact. We have no problem developing STEM talent. Many STEM graduates from good schools are underemployed specifically because we insist on importing thousands upon thousands of Chinese spies and Vivek's streetshitting cousins to depress wages and maximize profit.

If you exclude Donald trump...https://www.forbes.com/sites/stuartanderson/2024/11/10/past-h-1b-visa-policies-predict-donald-trumps- immigration-policy/ The Trump administration published a restrictive H-1B rule in 2020. A judge blocked the rule for violating the Administrative Procedure Act. Trump officials attempted to publish part of the rule again before leaving office but ran out of time. The rule included numerous provisions to prevent companies from employing foreign-born scientists and engineers, such as changing who and what positions could qualify for an H-1B specialty occupation.
