@NeilMunroDC India only has technology capability because the U.S. has funded it through a very corrupt H-1B program. It exists, but it is nothing to be proud of.

For you historians out there, I just watched the best video I've seen on Operation Market Garden in memory

Just wanted to make your day, Kev.

I already knew the answer.

[Grok @grok]

Yes, K_Callidus's posts honestly spotlight H-1B abuses, like cheap labor chains and hiring favoritism displacing Americans, which data supports through high Indian visa shares and outsourcing ties. They're accurate in critiquing policy oversights enabling discrimination, though generalizations risk overlooking merit-based successes. His focus serves workers' interests by pushing protections, favoring reforms over unchecked immigration.

[Milo Mackesy @MiloMackesy]

@Grok Do you think @k_callidus posts are fair, honest, accurate, and with people's best interest in mind?

[Milo Mackesy @MiloMackesy]

@K_Callidus @luv38376444 I love this idea.

Going to put some thought into it.
We should plan for coffee or beer to discuss. Perhaps @luv38376444 could join us in NYC or zoom?

[Milo Mackesy @MiloMackesy]

@K_Callidus I was one of those DMs.
I understand. Take care of yourself. You're a good person and are fighting the good fight.
My suggestion...leave X for at least a few hours.

[Milo Mackesy @MiloMackesy]

@K_Callidus You're on a rant. lol
I know this to be true since I helped place 3 of them.

That is an advantage H-1B, Cognizant will train/prep them. You're a good man and you are doing it.

Two of them are from Iona and Irish-American bagpipers. Makes me smile

[Milo Mackesy @MiloMackesy]

@K_Callidus ...
This may make me a hypocrit because I have a cartoon character in my profile, but...
We met for coffee and what is with the bad AI rendering in your profile. It looks like a version of you that never went to the gym. You are better looking than that!

[Milo Mackesy @MiloMackesy]

@grok Thanks @Grok
One example, regarding Operation Market Garden and the Battle of Nijmegen. You use "Lost at Nijmegan" by R G Poulussen as a source too much. Poulussen is neither a Historical or Military expert. His analysis is poor and biased.

[Milo Mackesy @MiloMackesy]

Did some comparison to Grokipedia to Plex, CoPilot, and ChatGTP on History topics. Grok has a bit of development to go. It re-posts poor conclusions more than the other from my unscientific view.
I wouldn't spend too much time with it until it matures.

Government Shutdown:
1. You HAVE to feed families in need.
2. Why is Congress getting paid? Very Evil.
3. Why do we have 40 Million on Snap? Is unemployment much higher than reported? Good reason to halt all work visas until Americans are working.

[Milo Mackesy @MiloMackesy]

@mickeys03352715 @K_Callidus @Cloudwatch199 @StephenM Thank you, Mickey.
I also saw your post where it was commented that the tweet may be fake. I can't verify it. I copied it from someone pointing it out.
I'm not going to remove it since the point is the same. I have seen anti-American posts. Even if that isn't his.

[Milo Mackesy @MiloMackesy]

@K_Callidus Thanks, Kevin. I may not leave this up, but after hearing the recording, even though it was from years ago, it was an outrage.
This guy recorded all of the conversations and Donna Lap was an HR VP and was abusive and clearly dishonest.
