Some big brains were busy on X telling people that they should shut up and sit down if they're not building something. They were also quick to call it all racism after they intentionally baited a bunch of edgelords to make outrageous comments competing for attention. The gall of telling the people that have lost three decades with wages not keeping up with inflation, much less the wealth growth of the .1%, that they should shut up and accept the rampant fraud by those benefiting the most.

This is much deeper than tech too. This goes to the core of the WEF/woke HR mafias that have filled in the map. The political discrimination and ostracization has been ongoing in government right under the noses of local and state voters too. They have no idea how batshit crazy authoritarian these public health and other agencies have become at the top, even in places where it seems they aren't. They're all over these places and they just don't entertain their most radical views publicly until they cement control of the hiring and administrative positions.

H1B is cheaper for companies broadly or it wouldn't be used for entry level jobs and people without any real stake in the US are great source of people willing to turn their heads to violations of US law by companies or violations of our constitution by government agencies. It really works out well for everyone except the US public. They also have a lot of mobility in all these high level positions, so there's never a position anywhere important that won't have a political activist or go-along-to-get-along type to step into HR or management. They basically have waged a two decade PR campaign against white males so that they could give themselves pats on the back for hiring anyone that wasn't. The unspoken admission by these sycophants when they drop math and English standards in schools or hire based on identity demographics, is that they have failed to deliver on decades of promises.

Now, let us not forget that the same timeframes in which these takeovers have happened that education to the poorest has gone down the toilet, public safety has been abandoned in many urban areas, and the wealth has concentrated even more at the very top. That just seems to keep happening no matter how hard we fight racism and sexism and all the "isms" and "ists". More homeless, more poor, higher taxes, and somehow fewer and fewer people keep getting richer and richer. Elites got richer and everyone else got disposable electronics and a lower quality of life.

Yellen's treasury emergency is next up. The UFO crowd is still busy chasing planes and some drones. The alt-right is busy making memes about Indians. Planes are getting shot down accidentally, more than a few are having irregular landings. We did the trains a while back. They're also distracting from the culling of millions of animals to stop the spread of a disease that is most likely riding mallards all over their natural range with more pandemic fearmongering. That seems to be falling pretty flat, fortunately... but while people feel defiant about masks and lockdowns they're not saying anything about the destruction of regional food production happening under the same guise.

2025 is going to be real interesting and not just in the US.

2025 is going to be a watershed year and MAGA is going to get the Trump they tolerate. 

Thank you for such a well thought out reply,much appreciated!
