    Fucking Vivek, lol. Another Harvard undergrad, Yale law graduate finance bro complaining about there not being enough engineers in the US.

    He’s right up there with all the other suit wearing, ivy league chuds and podcast bros that have been telling everyone (guys, specifically) that college is a woke DEI scam and to go to trade school instead while they sit in air conditioned offices.

        Maybe I’m naive… I don’t think their ideology is developed enough, but there’s almost a kind of sense to it.

        • Tech oligarchs want cheap, compliant labor.

        • Push the ostensibly-protected native population out of the education pipeline for those jobs and into trades.

        • Complain there aren’t enough graduates to meet that demand in the country.

        • Increase the ability to import workers with tenuous legal status in the country.

        • Also, as a bonus, end birthright citizenship to allow for maximum coercion in the event the imported worker has a child while in the country.

        It all makes sense, kinda. pepe-silvia
