Bernie is unironically right
Elon Musk is wrong. The main function of the H-1B visa program is not to hire โthe best and the brightest,โ but rather to replace good-paying American jobs with low-wage indentured servants from abroad. The cheaper the labor they hire, the more money the billionaires make.

I shocked @tomough with this statistic about the UK. The mean average GDP per employed adult in the UK is about $107,000 which is about ยฃ85k. That means that without the government taking away your money in the form of taxes and duties, the average brit would be on $107k (ยฃ85k).

"American founding stock don't have any right to continue to exist in America, they need to get lost" . Brother we are way beyond limiting H1Bs here. This is genocidal language. When people tell you who they are, believe them.
@RokoMijic But again, the United States is not theirs, Anglo-Saxons do not have birthright to the global reserve currency, they should compete or get lost. It was built by foreigners and will belong to those who build it, not those who stand to take credit.

@elonmusk There are 4.4 million software developers in the USA. 0.1% of that is 4400 . In 2022 there were roughly 320,000 H1Bs awarded just to Indians . If you only need 4400, then there's no need to increase H1B immigration from India - in fact we could even consider cutting it by 98.5%.

@IterIntellectus > focus on motivating families with 2-3 kids to have one or two more. And you want to do this without even giving them any tax breaks? . LOL. I'm sorry but this post is delusional. Money absolutely matters. I would have started a family 10 years ago if I'd had money.

"I wonder if women have a subconscious desire to 'shit test' society itself. To nibble away / slightly undermine it and see if it crumbles."
@RokoMijic I wonder if women have a subconscious desire to "shit test" society itself. To nibble away / slightly undermine it and see if it crumbles. If it does then it doesn't matter, a stronger society will pick them up anyway.

Feminism is a nation-killer because the whole point of it is to extract labor from the woman that should be going into raising children and redirect it to various useless parasites. And the psyop is so good that they even get women to cheer for this outcome. An actually.
There is no version of the world in which a society of dual-income families reaches replacement fertility. Full-day care for 2+ children wipes out the average mom's income. It's like how Uber "pays" you to depreciate your car, except its your kids.

Women see dangerous gangsters locked up in prison and immediately think about how to let them back out . ๐คฃ.
okay weird idea. what if these prisoners voted for *one* prisoner to go free, on probation. and that ex-con's performance would dictate whether *another election is held* (three-month rollover?). you're working outside to free people *others think might succeed*. there's pressure.

I actually have a take that is even more controversial than this. Not only is it the case that human societies would flourish and people would be happier if women aged 18-40 were banned from the full-time, paid workforce so they could raise children. It is furthermore the case.

Men have skin in the game because when they lost the game, they would be skinned alive. But women would just get a new, better set of men to reproduce with . Imagine the converse of this: When a country loses a war, all the women are killed by the women from the conquering side,.
This is a frequently cited finding. But it is wrong. The result is based on studies of Y-chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA. And the findings are correct that there is less variation in the Y chromosome, with bottleneck about 8000 years ago. But the reason for the results is not

Once anti-aging treatments become mainstream, essentially nobody will refuse them. People who claim it "goes against nature" or whatever will just quietly take the treatments. They won't be held to account for hypocrisy because that just doesn't happen. Nobody will care. It.
โThere is a decent chance in the next 3 years we figure out how to reverse aging and nobody dies anymoreโ. Human megalomania on full display. Playing God never works, never will work and I fundamentally believe it will always end badly. Sooner or later. Memento mori.

The real blackpill is when you realize that 90% of people don't know what the fuck is happening and just copy what everyone around them is doing and so a tiny minority who get to set consensus beliefs can exert phenomenal amounts of control over the world.

It's on the news now - South and West Asian prison gangs (i.e. Pakistanis and Arabs) will kill you in prison if you are arrested for a naughty social media post . This is basically how the Gulags worked BTW. Gulags were not officially supposed to kill people, but in practice they.

Women have a weird idea of what men are attracted to. Many men prefer pale and yummy (left) to extreme make-up Instagram Face (right).
Itโs funny to see average women telling more beautiful women that they want what they have (husband & kids). Isabella is reserved for successful men who want to show off a hot woman, the chick on the right marries an average man & lives an average life (nothing wrong with that)

What are the problems with high-skilled non-white immigration? . Ok. Start at position (1) the country is 100% (or close) white, with a distribution of skills and personalities. As long as people have the expectation that everyone is white and native, this is a stable.
@RokoMijic You should lay out in more detail what, in your view, are the problems with *high-IQ* non-white immigration. As far as I can tell, your position is that the high-IQ non-white elites would push for allowing low skilled immigration for members of their race, and eventuallyโฆ.
