He’s FOS.

He cites not finding enough US engineers willing to work 12 hour days.

The reality is they want to pay foreign visa guys to do the work at 50% of their domestic wage value, force them to work 80-100 hour weeks to reduce their headcount numbers and discard them as needed when work conditions change. Keep in mind that these are salaried not hourly positions so by increasing expected hours it doesn’t benefit the employee at all as it would for blue collar workers who would get paid overtime for the additional time.

By reducing their head count it increases their valuation numbers for Wall Street and thus increases their stock price and executive compensation bonus payouts.

It’s a straight up hustle to increase executive pay at the expense of domestic workers and wages.

Elon and Vivek can get ****** on this particular issue.

Biden administration issued plenty of visas to all he let in too.

You need to learn the difference between regular visas handed out vs the h1b visa abuse. If h1bs were being handed out like they should be then new new Delhi's with Indian restaurants, etc wouldn't be popping up everywhere. Obviously not just tech experts are being brought in.

It's both. You have strata in American culture which promotes excellent, but we also have much that promotes mediocrity at best. If we didn't, we wouldn't be fighting off DEI and CRT bullshite. We wouldn't have Justice Wise Latina nor Justice Diversity Hire. We wouldn't have people regurgitating such sophomorically simplistic arguments over someone as inept as Kamala Harris not winning the election solely due to "isms" and/or "ists" (see also: Hillary Clinton blaming men somehow not allowing their wives to vote for her in 2016).

This lack of quality opened the door for cheap technical labor.

prominent MAGA accounts turning against Musk before the inauguration?

but this is why Musk is such a valuable asset for Trump, as political cover

Trump has said nothing and MAGA ignore and spin his prior green card comments.

Musk and Vivek are the ones sprouting deeply unpopular policy to their base.

Trump can dump him and MAGA will be back in tow,

On the other hand, Musk NEEDS Trump and Maga to peddle influence further then he could on his own

I also agree with Vivek. We need to get the best and brightest from around the world. The problem has always been the poo migrants that Bush, Obama, and Biden brought in

This wasn't kicked off by loomer. It popped over a month.

It's either Americans First or it's not. It's not anyone siding with loomer.

Yeah, I don’t see how this means he’s “going up in flames.” Most people now know that the media is full of shite on just about everything. But there are a lot of times that people on social media are guilty of the same teenage girl, over dramatic language to try to drum up attention.

Ridiculous.
