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
Uhh, no.
Liberals value education, vote for it, and respect it in others.
And, correction, it’s conservatives, not liberals, who see life as a zero-sum game, where anyone who gets a job is taking it away from someone else.
Show me these “liberals who think [H1b holding] immigrants are taking their tech jobs.” I don’t see any.
You’re not as alone as you think. Recognize your allies.
@merileedkarr I’ve experienced a significant number of Democratic aligned people who think H1B workers don’t need assistance because we aren’t refugees. The Democratic administration also hasn’t made substantial improvements or changes to fix the broken immigration system overall. There’s a theoretical idea of who liberals are that sounds great in practice, but many are not clued in on immigration.
