I’ve pretty much agreed and bought into most everything Vivek has promoted. Of course execution of those plans mentioned on the campaign trail or 1st day in office are always derailed by nearly every president it seems. Only thing I strongly disagree with Vivek on is his method of “draining the swamp” specific the the one point of eliminating 75% of federal civilian jobs. It’s the corrupt senior leaders in the Government that need to go, not the worker-bees just living paycheck to paycheck. Sure most of their jobs are completely non-essential, but just firing majority of the workforce doesn’t fix corruption in government which is the major problem, just saves some budget temporarily. A better solution might be to do force out/ give early retirement to everyone over 60 years old (which would be a lot of Gov civilians) then for every department, the manager only gets to rehire/ backfill 1 junior level staff for every 3 that are let go/retire , each year for several years. That will drain the swamp and prevent BS empire building by leaders and inneficiency.
I'm not wanting to join the anglo-countries-with-Indian-leaders club, but this guy says a lot of good things. It's good to have people finally saying the emperor has no clothes.
It's like the sad truth of so many other things in swamp life. The law doesn't matter, they're brazen, they don't care etc - violence is the only thing that might work at this point. Sad to say, but unless you get a coordinated removal of these people with physical force, they will not go away and no law means anything to them.
I feel like Vivek is like Javier. He's so on point with everything....
Then once elected, he will fly to Varanasi to cry before Lord Shiva.

That is everybody allowed to run in conservative parties across the west. Trump, Milei, Bolsonaro, Meloni, etc., they are all the same fake right-wing leaders.I feel like Vivek is like Javier. He's so on point with everything....

He clearly is pretty polished from going and conversing like this all last year while he was campaigning.
And honestly the student he’s talking to isn’t ready to swallow the red pill,

By the way she's dressed, she's spending her time swallowing other things...
Note the picture on the right. You could see there's a gap on the back of his shoe.
Warning: Language.
Here is another one. Note the gap on the back of his left shoe.
Vivek is more concerned with tech support than heel support.
So, I have a story... to illustrate how I feel. For context, Vivek was born here to immigrant parents from generally the same place my parents are from in India. I immigrated myself, with my parents, during middle school and went through a huge transformation. I rejected the Indian culture enough to have joined the military, and eventually got into politics locally. Me and him are very different. Here we go.
I think I mentioned to you guys I worked in one of the biggest accounting firms in the world, a while back. Eventually I was on an interview panel and interview some smart kids from the best Midwestern colleges. A few Partners were also on the panel.
One kid was social (frat boy), decent but not very high gpa, sports, but didn't come across as sharp as another super smart kid. Lots of academic stuff, top gpa etc.
My comments were along the lines of 'hey look, he was in a frat, and doesn't have as good a gpa as the smart kid." One of the partners fucking filleted me in the conference room. I think he graduated from the same college.
Over a decade of American TV and culture got me to believe that frat kids, and jocks were "not smart" and the nerds were. It played into my belief because I grew up on the nerd side. Despite being in the military, and even having worked with many former frat kids who were successful at the firm, I made a huge mistake.
That whole fiasco is something I always regretted. I think it even played into me getting crappier assignments which eventually led to me leaving the firm.
Since then, I learned about my own bias and never criticized the All American jock or Prom Queen. Because that's America. That interview panel was a huge learning experience and subconsciously I never treated anyone with disrespect that had a more "American" background.
My point is that Vivek made the same exact mistake on X with his post. To be honest, he's right about a lot of the mediocrity but illustrating it with the examples that he used were bad taste and made him seem like a foreigner. He absolutely alienated middle America like I alienated my firm. He needs to come back from this but I'm not sure. What he needs to do is own up to it and just apologize before it's too late. Ideally, he can acknowledge it like I just did but let's see if he has the conviction.
