I hate it when anyone on any side politically talks about immigration. The libertarians and billionaire class appear to be pro-H1B because we are workers who feed their money machines and can’t easily quit or unionize. The liberals think we are privileged immigrants who take their tech jobs and we don’t need help in this utterly broken system.

The leftists who think we are cheap labor who take American jobs, you all suck too.

@skinnylatte you left out the drivers who think you're just one more car in front of them at the signal or taking their free parking at the local shops. I think most yimbys are pro immigrant though. Now if only we could use a voting method that supported more than two sides (STAR or Approval, or a few ranked methods that aren't IRV/STV)

@enobacon oh the other day I read that the Bay Area has bad drivers because we’re all from H1B countries

@skinnylatte drivers will imagine anything to avoid blaming the traffic Engineers

@skinnylatte @enobacon The thing they don’t tell you is that every city in America has bad drivers, they’re just bad in particular, traditional ways. Like accents or dialects, if either of those took roughly three Ice Ages to change lanes.

If anything, someone being a shitty driver just means they’ve assimilated…

@WhiteCatTamer @skinnylatte @enobacon they certainly aren’t going to acknowledge that the Covid brain damage has affected people’s driving. Of course they would blame it on immigrants. So gross
