Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

He's not complaining about us being ba workers. He complaining the average Joe doesn't treat their manager like a king like in Indian culture.
I worked for an Indian company once, I only made it 12 months before the harassment became too much.

In a post on X, he argued that U.S. culture celebrates mediocrity and undervalues nerdiness, hard work, and academic achievement.
I can't really argue with that part.
How is mediocrity celebrated? Well, other than the existence of social media influencers.
Trump.

Never met a craftsman in my life who didn't want to produce excellence.
The reason they don't is because management at best doesn't value it, and more often punishes it. This is you and your buddies fault Vivek Ramaswamy, you absolute shit for brains knob.
100%. The amount of times management has derailed a good design of mine for some garbage based on their limited technical understanding and priority of fast and cheap that costs more in the long run
Which is absolutely dumb because you gain a solid reputation for craftsmanship when you consistently make great pieces of work. This drives business up.
I mean yeah I guess management could skimp and cut costs, but if that results in an inferior product, your customers will definitely notice it, and perhaps take their business elsewhere.
I hate short-sighted business decisions, but they're everywhere in modern life.

US businesses don’t hire foreign workers because they perform better than domestic workers. They do it because they pay less for slave labor. US slaves primarily work in domestic food production, initially as a way to reduce the cost of food, but that turned into corporate profit pretty quickly.
Now we’ve created a massive margin standard on foreign imports as well as domestic food production. The inevitable consequence is that correction would either result in a temporary but substantial domestic business profit loss, or employing more unpaid or underpaid domestic workers.
Take a guess which track the Republicans plan on taking while they begin to fill the detention centers.
And they hire H1Bs because they can't quit or fired or they get deported.
Isn't this the same guy who said "weekends were a mistake"?
People like this have fully infiltrated the US tech sector, and have been kicking and screaming about how the workers there aren't killing themselves for their jobs anymore. They have completely embraced classism and believe they are at the top of some imaginary tower or food chain that allows them to make idiotic statements like this. Anti-egalitarian at the core.
They've already stripped all the benefits of working in tech away from the workers, and are now complaining that the horse won't pull the cart anymore now that the carrot is gone. Pieces of shit.
Isn’t this the same guy who “weekends were a mistake”?
No, that is Narayana Murthy, the billionaire founder of Infosys - a company that makes its money through indentured servitude by exploiting H1B visas.

Lol first musk, now this guy. These techbro wranglers are about to discover what getting into bed with fascist nationalists really means.
The controversy may jeopardize his standing in the Trump administration.
