I said:
> [Anti-immigration rhetoric is] not about making refugees not come. It's about making sure they never get the protections the local labor force already has.
> Because then they become super cheap labor. And a way to dismantle labor protections for everyone!
The problem for Musk with hiring Americans isn't that they're under-qualified, it's that they cannot be easily exploited.

It was never about availability of jobs. It was always about availability of exploitable labour.
An immigrant on an H-1B visa – or better yet an illegal one! – will accept way lower wages and way more abuse than a US citizen.
The money for those $50bln Tesla pay-offs to Musk need to come from somewhere, right?

Als Antwort auf Michał "rysiek" Woźniak · 🇺🇦 • • •So MAGA supporters are having a "wait we thought we all agreed it's about racism and keeping these Black and Brown people out!" moment.
Perhaps some of them will figure out that it has always been the other way around – that racism has always been a tool to divide and conquer the working class so that it can be exploited by the obscenely rich.
I am not holding my breath though. Racism is a powerful drug.

Als Antwort auf Michał "rysiek" Woźniak · 🇺🇦 • • •This whole H-1B visa kerfuffle shows one more important thing.
Namely, that the interests of a techie wage worker, even with their lofty salary, are way more closely aligned with other wage workers (yes, the so-called "blue-collar" labour, factory workers, etc) than with Musks and Bezoses of this world.
Both the techie and the factory worker are likely a small number of paychecks away from homelessness, for example. Both risk financial ruin if they lose their health benefits.
Michał "rysiek" Woźniak · 🇺🇦
Als Antwort auf Michał "rysiek" Woźniak · 🇺🇦 • • •The amount on the paycheck of the techie might be an order of magnitude higher than for the factory worker. But the power dynamic is pretty much the same.
Anyone fired recently by a Big Tech company has been very painfully made aware of that.
Musk (an immigrant himself!) calling US workers the r-word and insisting on bringing in easier to exploit, thus cheaper, immigrant labour – instead of hiring from the thousands of tech workers recently laid off in the USA – puts this in stark relief.

"The Servile State" by Belloc remains one of the greatest examinations of capitalism, and it is both FAR shorter and a much easier read than Marx's magnum opus.

Programmers are the working class. Just like almost everyone else.

Als Antwort auf Michał "rysiek" Woźniak · 🇺🇦 • • •i can even confirm this as a sr director. Im still relying on wages for survival. I have a good cushion most dont have for sure but that isnt years of cushion. Just buys me time to find another source of wages to survive and thrive off. (Yes i also have the privilege of thriving not just surviving. EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE THIS IMO)
i have far far more in common with poverty than i do with billionaires and wealth hoarders

Als Antwort auf Michał "rysiek" Woźniak · 🇺🇦 • • •Yep. I've long said that a real populist would make his first priority extending the same labour protections to ALL workers in the country. Promising mass deportations, and threatening to strip people of their citizenship for having parents who came from the "wrong" country, is the opposite of that.
But the patron-client model of society, though I hold it in abhorrence, maintains a strong grip on the human mind.

Ever since I saw Musk jumping around on stage like a doofus at that Trump rally in a special black MAGA hat I had the idea that Trumpism is comprised of "Red Hats" and "Black Hats".
The OG Red Hat MAGAts are the useful idiots that voted to preserve (or more accurately restore) their favoured place in an imagined world order. Black Hat MAGAts are the true beneficiaries of Trumpism...the oligarchs and investor class that are *actually* favoured by Trump to run America. Black Hat MAGAts are mostly quiet supporters so it wasn't so apparent until Musk became activitst that they existed, but I think they always have.
I fully expected this schism to happen but wasn't sure what issue and when. I figured it would be fallout over tariffs/economic struggles leading into the midterms but the way they are speed running it with immigration before Trump is even inaugurated is impressive!
