Trying to understand the need to bring in H1B workers for tech jobs when the industry laid off (according to Elmo) 300,000 tech workers in the last 12 months.

seiferguy.bsky.social•180 days ago

H1Bs can be a form of indentured servitude. Employees can't leave unless they find another company to sponsor them, which can be tough.

mrsblocking.bsky.social•180 days ago

Called slave-contracts. Expats don't put up with this. Girlfriend/wife/husband, kids, schools, house/apartment, cars etc.

tedtratt.bsky.social•180 days ago

It’s a disgusting policy.

retiredmohel.bsky.social•180 days ago

Let’s not forget Steven ‘ShitStain’ Miller. Can’t believe me and this guy are both Jewish. He disgusts me.

If there was a Jewish pope or Czar, I’d report him. He’s a prick…

I’m glad he’s bald.

Elon's got the most money. Trump is going to listen to him.

evan1024.bsky.social•180 days ago

"listen"?

Is that how you spell "obey"?

anniewherebuthere.bsky.social•180 days ago

They’re both owned by the Russians and Saudis. We’re watching a puppet show

President Musk runs this bitch

musicienne.bsky.social•179 days ago

I wish this row had happened BEFORE the election. However, any split in the Maga/Trump camp is good news.

rollamichael.bsky.social•180 days ago

Finally, someone can do math and correctly add the 44b Twitter buy to the 200m campaign contributions. Thank you.

mrsblocking.bsky.social•180 days ago

And what is X worth today? Full of low-life maggots fighting?? In one year?

kinefresh.bsky.social•180 days ago

what’s crazy is all this is happening on twitter. imagine if this was reported on corporate news. the silent outrage continues.

skocak.bsky.social•180 days ago

This is the craziest part

agamemnerd.bsky.social•178 days ago

MAGA is just angry that they turned out to be low-level court vassals and Musk is Trump's buyer and owner. They're whining that Musk wants to "be President" but that's like saying Musk wants to "be a dog" when Musk actually "owns a dog".

harlanbelle.bsky.social•180 days ago

Whiny ass toad.

goseahox.bsky.social•180 days ago

Which are the Shiite MAGA, and which are Sunni MAGA?

usasunder.bsky.social•179 days ago

Maybe Krishnan was willing to work for lower pay

liberalisms.bsky.social•180 days ago

Have you completely mis-read this? Or possibly not read it? Musk is pro-Indian immigration. MAGA are having a meltdown about his stance.

bamboozer2112.bsky.social•180 days ago

As ever I suggest a steel cage match, no holds barred. As such I say Let The Melee Begin!

ryanlcooper.com•180 days ago

buying Twitter was a campaign spend https://prospect.org/power/2024-11-20-most-expensive-election-in-american-history/

dianamc.bsky.social•179 days ago

Hilarious Magats still gonna deport his indentured servants.

thatiscalledbrian.bsky.social•180 days ago

I don't credit the guy with enough foresight to say that buying Twitter was part of a scheme. It's more that after being forced into a sale he tried to dodge and repeatedly failing to monetize the site he finally found a use for it that could make back what he spent on the place plus interest.

justostrich.com•180 days ago

I don't agree. His moves make zero sense from a monetization perspective.

thatiscalledbrian.bsky.social•180 days ago

Sometimes people doing things that don't make sense is just because they're dumb and impulsive and their plans are bad, but there's a strong desire to believe that powerful people are Machiavellian rather than just rich idiots.

justostrich.com•180 days ago

Assuming a billionaire is spending his billions to manipulate you is a safer assumption than assuming a billionaire is burning money for no reason.

justostrich.com•180 days ago

Learning that a lot of people just don't believe that rich people can be evil.

tamslick.bsky.social•180 days ago

You’re aware that he actually had to be forced to go through with the purchase in a courtroom?

exbox.bsky.social•180 days ago

He tried everything to get out of the purchase, only going ahead when Twitter took legal action which he was advised he would lose. He’s not as smart as people think, plus he was probably high at the time.

synthwhoa.bsky.social•180 days ago

That's because he's very stupid.

I'm not sure he was always very stupid, but a combination of drugs and surrounding himself with sycophants has turned his brain to mush.

saltyk.bsky.social•180 days ago

Retroactively, sure.

flamingspur.bsky.social•180 days ago

I dunno I'm not yet going to bet Elon comes out the loser in this. MAGA may just end up finding out that rich billionaires will do what's in their interests, despite whatever they have said in the past. The leopard might be the billionaire class

trosen76.bsky.social•180 days ago

Nikki Haley came out personally against Indian immigration. Incredible. Is she gonna self deport her and her family?

milesrandjack.bsky.social•180 days ago

So many huge egos smashing against each other 😄

bento-bongos.bsky.social•180 days ago

Large Ego Collider looking for the narcissism particle here!

jaynetunes.bsky.social•179 days ago

Leopards gonna eat pplz faces.

costrike.bsky.social•178 days ago

Gotta hope the Germans who read his op-ed are paying more attention to his online antics

fbpech.bsky.social•180 days ago

I think Hell will be America - I feel for all the Democrats 😭

mavist.bsky.social•180 days ago

A condition of granting H1B visas is that competitive, if not generous, wages are guaranteed.

pr-gary.bsky.social•180 days ago

And is that something that is monitored and enforced?
Because hiring undocumented immigrants is also illegal but...

brianwhite.bsky.social•180 days ago

krnwlf777.bsky.social•180 days ago

Hi Elon,

You voted red
I voted blue
Now don't complain
This shits on you

Best,
Common man

I heard like a first crack… and you?

kenjansen.bsky.social•180 days ago

Ahahaha

antilocapra-a.bsky.social•180 days ago

But, but, he’s a genius.

teleportnow.bsky.social•180 days ago

Does anybody actually believe Trump was going to deport all of his donors immigrant labor?

anniewherebuthere.bsky.social•180 days ago

He will likely attempt to deport blue state immigrants, probably California

mrsblocking.bsky.social•180 days ago

He hates New York and vice versa!

anniewherebuthere.bsky.social•180 days ago

I’m sure NY is on his list too.

jascarb.bsky.social•180 days ago

Best thing to do is breed an elite race from all the clever people at the top and let all the normals fall away. (joke obv, but it's where nature not nurture takes us)

serviceman.bsky.social•180 days ago

Well you’re correct with the first three words “ I never thought “. Karma is a bitch and the bitch needs to be exported

citizen12345.bsky.social•180 days ago

FAFO

xiaotongyang.bsky.social•180 days ago

In Australia, we need to focus on legal immigration and stop the boats. We must ensure our communities are safe. Let's prioritize our citizens first! #Immigration #AustraliaFirst #StopTheBoats

retiredmohel.bsky.social•180 days ago

There is no greater tyranny than that which is perpetrated under the shield of the law and in the name of justice…Montesquieu

PS. Always very suspicious of terms like SAFE and LEGAL in immigration debates. Sometimes it’s code for racist stuff. Right?

xiaotongyang.bsky.social•180 days ago

We can't let safety get mistaken for racism! Illeagal immigration puts our communities at risk. Legal pathways ensure security while balancing compassion. Let's keep our priorities straight! #StopTheBoats

exbox.bsky.social•180 days ago

Twitter is over there >>>>>

xiaotongyang.bsky.social•180 days ago

Oh, look! Another bag of unsolicited spammery. Truly remarkable how low-stakes stupidity still finds its way to cyberspace—parenting failure, perhaps? Think before you type, please.

exbox.bsky.social•180 days ago

Twitter is over there >>>>

speakermikej.bsky.social•179 days ago

Oh, you weren't familiar with the tech exemption to the fake replacement theory? It's in the footnotes.

ncstarguy.bsky.social•177 days ago

The immigrant-worker-Deporting Leopards won’t deport MY immigrant-workers!
