What’s reverse DEI? Giving jobs to the locals first instead of the international community? Lol.We don't need any immigration, of any kind, especially from the third world.
These new terms like "woke right" and "reverse DEI" are just sad, weak, desperate attempts at gaslighting conservatives into accepting more demographic replacement, and all of the bad things that come along with it.
So, Elon has backpedaled since starting his "war," has admitted to the fraud and corruption of H1-B instead of shrieking like a hysterical child.
Stephen Miller, "our Jew," is still in charge and is going to gut the H1-B system as much as he can, just like he did in Trump's first term.
I'm glad all of this happened now, it will be forgotten in two weeks. It was good to rein in Elon now rather than after Jan 20th.
That's a good way to look at it, someone in the political realm for once actually giving a shit what the people think is good...
A lot of right wing frauds are being exposed by this.
Agreed. Also add some language they can't fire US citizens just to replace them with H1Bs. Corporations would likely still do it, but it would take extra effort to be sneaky, and there'd be lawyers out looking for opportunities to sue for punitive damages. They certainly couldn't just have the US employee train his H1B replacement before firing him.Personally I would like to see the H1B visa program removed wholesale but that is not going to happen. Failing that they could bring in a new requirement that only those receiving a $200,000 per annum salary or higher can be hired on the visa. That way only people with actual in demand skills will be hired and it will cut down significantly on fraud and abuse (using the program to import cheap foreign labour).
He kind of had no choice. The backlash was too strong, and their points were too obviously legit. Furthermore, it was all on his own platform (Twitter) so when he was initially tempted to silence this opposition, he was destroying his own platform in general.That's a good way to look at it, someone in the political realm for once actually giving a shit what the people think is good....

Lose what?In the competitive world we are in, we lose if we don't get the best.
Professional athletes (MLB/NFL/NBA/NHL) have their own visa called a P-1 that's basically the same thing. I believe most student athletes (NCAA) would be on a standard F-1 student visa.
O-1 is basically only for scientists (Nobel Prize winners, other prestigious awards, highly-cited publications, important research in field), businessmen (founder of multimillion $ startup, CEO, etc), and actors/musicians (nationally touring musician, Hollywood actor).
Yes of course they can all be games. Are you sure they were O1 or just H1B?There is still fraud. Extraordinary ability isn’t well defined, so again the system is gamed. Depending on how the immigration attorney words the application many things can qualify.
People keep mentioning the O-1 visa because of posts on X, but nobody is saying that this visa is also gamed.
I have two examples. One was a Chinese guy I knew who got this visa, and the job could have been filled with a domestic applicant. He was not a Nobel Prize winner, not even close. The 2nd was a Brazilian guy who won several BJJ tournaments and got this visa. Granted, he was very good at jiujitsu, but I don’t think bringing over BJJ athletes is what the average American has in mind when they hear we are getting the best and the brightest.
I had a roommate decades ago who sold cars. He said the very same thing when dealing with Indians as well. He got so mad that one time he refused to sell them the car, at full price, because of all the haggling and time they wasted. He decided he simply didn't want them to have the car, even if they paid full price for it, lol.After seeing a few of those Youtube travelers in India I understand why Indians are the way they are. I would be the same as them if I grew up in extreme poverty where there is no escape and everyone is always trying to screw each other over, you would do whatever you could to get out and if you happened to land in a wealthy country where the people are lambs, you will prosper. It is interesting how nice so many of them are, I wonder if it's a product of the high population density, if anyone is out of line a bunch of people could swiftly lynch them.
I remember an Indian-American guy, Ramit Sethi, who had a blog Iwillteachyoutoberich (100% authentic Indian title) and I read his book and the guy was always so proud of anything he did that was vaguely Indian, like doing whatever it took to screw companies over to save a buck. He also took a lot of pride in being Indian, calling himself your surrogate disappointed Indian father. They definitely think of themselves as superior because of their cutthroat business sense.
I once sold cars in Canada and every now and then an Indian would come in. In their broken English they would try to negotiate by offering half the price of the car. They would be annoyingly insistent and waste your time. I saw another salesman doing a test drive with one of them and they were in the parking lot for half an hour with the Indian guy turning this way and that, test every movement of the car, turning the wheels all the way, getting out, getting on the ground to look under and over every single part of the vehicle. I asked an old salesman who worked there why they did that and he said "because in their culture they're always trying to screw each other over." The Indians didn't even understand the gentle, honest Canadian salesmen weren't trying to screw them over by selling them a trash vehicle, they assume Canadians are like them, or something. Even my sales manager got out of the industry as soon as he could because he didn't want to have to try to sell to brown people the rest of his career.
You know what, my wife has said India was one of the countries she'd like to visit someday, I should get her to watch some of those traveler videos.
