Sir Sean 🇺🇸 in Slovakia 🇸🇰

And in a week when you smooth brained idiots have moved past the H-1b visa issue what will be the next shinny object that catches your attention to get mad at Trump about.

Jesus this place has gone downhill in the last few months.

@SirSeanofSlovakia yeah.... I just don't get what the deal with H-1B visas is. I mean, c'mon... 🙄

@ThatCrazyDude @SirSeanofSlovakia

It's about a choice: diversity or nationalism/nativism.

@amerika @SirSeanofSlovakia but H-1B isn't about diversity or anything like that. It's a non-immigrant visa so it's not even about immigration. It's just about sourcing work force that you can't source locally for whatever reasons.
I honestly don't get what the fuss is all about.

@ThatCrazyDude @SirSeanofSlovakia

I forget you're overseas and don't have to deal with California.

H-1B is about cheap labor. Before it, they hired Reddit NEETs because you could pay them very little and they would slavishly take it just so they could live in SF or Austin.

Politically, H-1B is about our future: do we find a way to restore our people, or do we keep bringing in warm bodies from the third world?

Also Russian, Chinese, and now Indian coders are low-quality labor but companies prefer to hire a dozen of them over a talented Murkan, esp a White one.

@amerika @SirSeanofSlovakia I honestly doubt that. I mean, if I was a commiefornian employer I'd just hire me a bunch of illegals. I mean, why the F would I spend tons of cash on pre-arranging contracts, immigration lawyers and all that jazz if the State won't prosecute me for hireling undocumented aliens anyway? It really makes no sense to me. But then, I'm no commiefornian, so.... Maybe it makes some sense from the perspective of a socialist, somehow 🤔

@ThatCrazyDude @SirSeanofSlovakia

"if I was a commiefornian employer I'd just hire me a bunch of illegals"

If you run a lawn-mowing service, yes that makes sense.

If you run a tech company that depends upon bulk labor that is detail-oriented, you use H-1Bs or autistic basement NEETs.
@ThatCrazyDude @SirSeanofSlovakia

True illegals generally are low-quality labor.

The one exception might be the Bay Area Chinese community, but that's also a good way to lose all of your IP.
@ThatCrazyDude @SirSeanofSlovakia

There's also some resentment of Silicon Valley here, since its business model is based on warm bodies.

The "Year of the Indian CEO" did not go so well either. The companies they helm have gone into the shitter.

But really, it's about the national question.

Then again, to a nationalist... most politics is that way.

Musk successfully triggered 90% of White and Huwhite voters into becoming racialists or ethno-nationalists instead of civicc nationalists.
