I have been making a living specifically unfucking Pajeet code for the last 10 years. Words cannot describe how vindicated I've felt in the last 3 days.

Similar story except I’ve consulted on it for about a quarter of the Fortune 100. I feel so seen by this discourse.

The irony is that Elon musks greatest accomplishment is eliminating bloat from rockets, but he’s importing a bunch of people that will add bloat to every sector they work in.

I actually believe it’s possible that Elon is operating in good faith. His companies probably do only recruit the top 1% and he himself likely only interacts with the top .1%. As an “AmericANS firster,” I still have plenty of objections to the ethos he’s advancing but he doesn’t have any exposure to how retarded and inefficient the average H1B at ATT or Lowe’s is.

“Good faith” and “I’m going to rip your fucking face off” don’t really go together.

The guy seems smart enough to do some basic research on public policy before telling most Americans they are garbage and alienating the other half of America having already alienated one half. The most logical explanation is that he’s a narcotic autist with a history of wild rages and poor twitter control that is going to have difficulty managing those traits in an arena where he can’t just fire the American public.

Elon Musk deserves no credit for the lack of H1-B hires at SpaceX. Many positions cannot be filled by H1-B hires because of federal law prohibiting foreigners from working on rocket science jobs.

I do t give him any credit. I’m saying his most important contribution to the world didn’t require h1bs.

“I will end forever the use of H-1B as a cheap labor program, and institute an absolute requirement to hire American workers first for every visa and immigration program. No exceptions.”

Oof. I must be wearing orthopedic shoes because I stand corrected.

One would think that The Orange One never said any such a thing, since this existential crisis for tens of millions of well-educated, qualified, experienced, technically-skilled American workers barely ever garnered a mention during Trump’s first term.

Hence, #PromisesMadePromisesNOTKept .

With a narcissistic sociopath like Trump, it is necessary to constantly bitch and moan as well as embarrass and humiliate him for his lies and duplicity toward his CORE BASE OF VOTERS…because he will surely screw us over yet again.

The obnoxiously incessant SQUEAKY WHEEL GETS THE GREASE from the perfidious, mendacious liar humiliated on the world stage. That’s what it’s gonna take.

If you don’t loudly and bitterly complain with this snake oil salesman, you get monstrosities like the insulting “Howdy Modi” debacle…just to rub salt in the wound.

Trump may be effective when provoked to (finally) take action, but the personality-disordered are not to be trusted under any circumstances.

Trump will deliver what we want when it grievously hurts him (in terms of injury to ego) NOT to deliver on his promises.

You may think I despise Trump. No, I UNDERSTAND him. At least he’s not irredeemably EVIL, like every one of our past presidents going back a century.

Are you giving Coolidge the pass? (probably a based call there)

Hmm. Carter was probably just naive & easily manipulated. Eisenhower & Truman were shit but probably just well-intentioned tools.

Heck even Dubyah- his administration was irredeemably evil & one of the worst ever but he personally genuinely believed he was doing what was right for the country & what "God" wanted. Naive fool. "Moral if his ideology was correct".

I didn’t intend to be especially specific regarding dates. I would certainly go all the way back to Woodrow Wilson. He was truly a traitorous scumbag.

You're right about Trump.

Unfortunately, while the European right is a mixture of ineffectual old people, Christian democracy, corporatocratic capitalists, & lastly earnest pro white fighters who are genuinely nationalistic & trying their damndest to make remigration happen. They also somehow have genuinely more lifestyle libertines/hedonists/radical antiPC/pronatal sex cult individualists who care about self autonomy more than any US "individualist" even though the US is supposedly mote individualistic.

The American right, on the other hand, is literally MOSTLY a Donald personality cult, with some corporatocratic, military industrial complex, & Israeli shilling controlling most of the elite driver's seat & ineffectual old people, pickme macho browns, & neo-Confederate retards on the side.

You cooked here. Great logic and essay. You're exactly right, it's all about reducing labor input costs.

Dropping this study here, for those who would whine "but that’s all anecdotal!": https://www.statista.com/chart/17565/coding-skills-and-employability-of-indian-it-engineering-graduates/. I recall this causing intense seething in India when it came out.

Suffice to say, your experiences completely match my own.

Even Sundar Pichai and Satya Nadella have failed to drive innovation at what were previously the second and third largest companies by market cap. Google used to drive innovation, but under Sundar Pichai Google's begun losing its monopoly on search, Android has lost its market dominance in North America, and their only notable new product has been the Pixel. Microsoft has followed a cycle of trying to copy Apple, failing, pulling the product, and repeating with something else

This is the best article I have ever read on this site. As a 30+ year tech guy (I hate the term bro), every thing in this article is 100% correct.

Definitely saw that back in undergrad, large groupings of them working together in their own in-group, I floated between several different ethnic groups but the electrical engineering department was (becoming/had become) very much ethnocentric.

Whites are anti-racist to impress high-status whites, not non-whites, whom they care about only as objects. C’mon.

Not just the tech sector, they have flooded the healthcare sector with “qualified” pajeets, most of whom don’t know what hand soap is.

I work in IT as a remote overseas contractor for big US companies. In companies I worked for, it seemed like 50% of IT teams were Pajeets, but for IT leaders, architects, mid level managers and IT directors/CIOs it was more like 80+%. Pajeets also become CEOs of Microsoft, Google, Twitter, FedEx and such, and also mayors of London and prime ministers of the UK. This is getting out of hand.

I also see an unpleasant trend of replacing IT recruitment girls with Pajeets. They used to say LinkedIn for IT guys was reverse Tinder: hot girls are spamming your inbox, desperate to call, meet or hear more about you, and you ghost or reject them. But since a couple of months, almost all of my LinkedIn spam is coming from male Pajeets.

Well there’s not just less pay for the Sub-Primals, there’s enormous sums paid to Harvard, MIT to keep 30% of the seats for Chinese and Indian students.

Then there’s elite hatred of the “legacy Americans”, an autistic term to rival “Human Capital.”

I don’t actually blame Elon or Vivek * for their stumble as this is the system they found and think they learn and remain in the fold, especially Elon.

*Vivek should avoid a career change to EOD, or crisis defusing, and stick to well… causing trouble for our foes.

>Honestly, this is another place where whites could learn a lesson from the Indians. Hiring in-group is the natural inclination of all humans. Koreans do this. Hispanics do this. Blacks definitely do this.

You might be misunderstanding it. I don't think they are hiring solely based on ethnicity - they are simply hiring because of relatives, friends, schoolmates, simply their network.
