Trump said not to trust Vivek during the election season.
The whole H1B situation is exposing Vivek as a Pro India first guy.
JD's wife is Indian as well.
People are also mad at Elon as well.
Could this also be a white hat exposure operation?

The whole thing feels like a big miscommunication error. Even the backlash seems reactionary than their own perspective. Alot of Pro MAGA talking heads are taking things out of context and running with it.
I definitely agree Elon has a completely different criteria when it comes to his own companies compared to companies like Boeing or Ford. There will always be Americans who can fit that criteria. Just don’t expect every American with an engineering degree to hit that mark.
Focus should still be teaching Kids interested in Stem fields no matter how long it takes. Also foster their ability to innovate.
We have to also fix the issue that is causing the constant hiring and firing from companies. The company you start off with might have a different set of people by the time you leave. Let alone if you're even employed for that long.
Could not agree more, CC. Zero nuance to the conversations happening on X right now.
As you said, a big part of this conversation should be about fostering more Americans to get STEM degrees.
But we've got to fix the H-1B mess AND this approach of American tech companies treating workers like they're potato chips that can just be tossed on the floor, then reach into the bag to grab more.
It's a disappointingly black & white conversation that's happening right now.
