Rules:

The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you're only using an excerpt from an article that's otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.) Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

Muskrat wants more HB1 visas. Conservative Twitter accounts said no. Muskrat retaliates. (slrpnk.net)

You mean the "fuck immigrants" crowd isn't down with ol Musky's plan to bring in brown immigrants? Who'd a thunk it.

Who cares what color they are. There have been enough layoffs that there is no need to import any engineers. Besides wanting to exploit them.

They just don't want to pay American wages, it's as simple as that.

Also HB-1 gives the employer a workforce that has no ability to leave.

As long as you understand Immigrant, and every form of legal immigration, means ''fucking messicans'' then yes. They hate immigrants. Musk just needs to tell them he'll only import their replacements from sterling white countries and they'll calm down.

It's only been a few weeks since DOGE dept existed. It's going to be quite a beautiful shitshow.
