Welcome to my brain. It’s messy. It’s interesting. And it’s all connected if you stick around long enough. "Believe Nothing: no matter who said, even if I have said it, except it agree with your own reason and common sense. Siddhartha Guatamo, the Buddha.

Admitted “No grounds”

Lots of vitriol flying about the webs and socio-sites about all things ‘immigration’ and H1B visas specifically.   

Not partaking, only watching (well, other than what I am writing here, not partaking,) but what I am seeing is a failure of tact on the part of ‘the smartest man in the world’ also known as the richest man in the world.  

Specifically, his throttling of opinion on his platform X.   Seems he doesn’t like people voicing against his wishing for MORE H!B visas, and at one point even stated ‘the DKE in these people is astounding’ or somesuch,,,   

Name calling shows lack of standing in your argument.    CENSORING OPINION shows you have no grounds AT ALL to defend your position. 

This all from a man that harped about freedom of speech just a few years back and made solid inroads into correcting the online censorship that was rampant under the COvidiocy,,,,  

Freedom of speech does not mean you must like what others are saying, just as they may not like what you are saying.   It DOES mean that discussion is possible, so long as the language remains civil.  CENSORSHIP IS NOT CIVIL, ITS TYRANNY WRIT LARGE.

IMO, its not about “who’s right” in this argument, its about solid emotions of Nationalism,,,   WE ARE AMERICANS, and we have seen the powers that be, trying to replace us, and now one of those that helped sway this past election, is showing signs of wanting to continue that trend.   THATS OFFENSIVE, and the guy with the DKE remark really needs to THINK before he responds so flippantly.    I admire the man for his accomplishments, drive, and,,, Hell His enthusiasm for LIFE, but right now, his liberal colors are showing brightly and not showing a good image.

I understand that there is a serious lack of STEM students on these shores, and that may be why he is leaning towards the H1B’s so hard,,, thats where the problem hits us sideways.   Its not a problem that is going to go away tomorrow, its going to take YEARS to correct and the only way to correct that issue is to GET THE GOV OUT OF OUR SCHOOLS.   Get the economy straightened out so the kids graduating aren’t buried under debts, and unable to find jobs because those jobs are taken by Visa holders that are damn near indentured servants.   The kids today have zero incentive to strive since they see the future stolen from them already.   Why bother, eh?   The jobs they do have offered are petty service industry jobs like flippin’ burgers.   Imagine having a masters in engineering and unable to find a job working for a big Corporation and working the local restaraunt scene is your only option to keep an income.   That shit will embitter a body with a quickness…

And guess what Elon,,, THOSE PEOPLE I JUST DESCRIBED are a large part of what voted for Trumped recently.   They are sick of the shit, and then you turn around and call them Dunning Kruger Effect Retards, you have the algorithms changed to suppress their opinions, even shuttering accounts to quiet the deluge of counter-opinion to yours,,,,

Nice move, real smart,

I’m reminded of my GranDad, who was a frickin’ Genius, but a social retard,,,  Grandma was the one that kept him from getting killed by stupid social F!ups.  (and she might have been just as smart as he was, just better equiped for the ‘real world’.)

I think you need to work on a better standing; one that doesn’t look at the bottom dollar first, before you go swinging your weight around and driving your credibility off a cliff.  A stance you can defend INTELLIGENTLY, and maybe even sway those, like me; open minded, but doubtful, that your position is one with the future of AMERICA in mind, not just your companies bottom lines.

    Very well said, brudda! It appears the farkin idiocy will be with us for some time. If he indeed thinks that way, then he, indeed, has already LOST America! I’ll hold my pitchfork and barbed wire necklace for now – but not for long.

    Y’all take care (keep that 5th L *lock* ) in mind,Mike in FLA.

    Did you write this up with my career in mind. Seeing how I achieved my M.M.E. in the mid eighties. Having several encounters with holders of H1B slipping into what should have been positions reserved for native born engineers. Let alone my prior far east service…at that time nobody was thanking me for my service.

    yeah , this boy has huge grudge against all those corporations that off shored manufacturing. Hiring H1B engineers in lieu.

    Orange man was one of the worst about doing this. You most certainly can’t convince me that all those immigrant H1B service workers, couldn’t have been American citizens…no surprise that he chose Elon and Vivek hmm.

    LOL , just wish Elon had started SpaceX back when I got my train drivers creds

    Finding out who you can not criticize can be eye opening.

    Colossus in Tennessee? E-lon ? i was warned about him 10- 12 years ago and have never changed my mind.
