Argentina vs Cabo Verde

[Rep. Summer Lee @RepSummerLee]

17 years ago, Sri Lanka carried out a genocidal campaign against the Tamil people. Tens of thousands killed. Hospitals destroyed. Families starved.

I will continue to stand with the Tamil community in the fight for justice. We need genocide recognition, universal jurisdiction, & international accountability.

Why do you hate immigrants who pay taxes, but admire billionaires who don't.

[Mikhaila Peterson @MikhailaFuller]

People who think less qualified Americans should be hired over more qualified legal immigrants are the same as pro DEI people. Getting smart people to move to your country, is good for your country. Do you want America to stay the world power or not?
- An immigrant

I am an Indian American who was born here and it's crystal clear that the Democratic Party sees me as American and a large part of the base of the Republican Party does not. I hope Indian Americans remember this moment at the next election. They don't see you as one of them. And never will.

You thought they just hated other immigrants. But it turns out there's no exception for you. As many of us have been telling you.

Burberry burned $36,500,000 of clothes in one year.

Not because they couldn't sell them.

Because they didn't want YOU to have them.

The idea that a c*s man would become a woman just to be able to hurt women and get away with it is insane. Why go to all that trouble when they can just become cops?

Boar’s Head is recalling 7 million pounds of deli meat due to a listeria outbreak.

Who issued the recall to protect consumers? The USDA.

Who just released a budget proposal that cuts USDA funding? House Republicans.

Tells you everything you need to know about the GOP's agenda.

Israel has the ability to assassinate Ismail Haniyeh in the middle of Iran but it can’t rescue 200 hostages from Gaza without killing 100k+ civilians is where the western news cycle is?

[Dwarkesh Patel @dwarkesh_sp]

My family moved to the US when I was 8, but by the time I turned 20, my dad was still on an H1B (waiting to get processed for a green card).

Once I turned 21, I would age out as his dependent, despite the fact that I basically grew up in the US.

I thought I'd have to become a code monkey after college, and even that only if I was lucky enough to win the H1B lottery.

Otherwise, back to India.

I had become a huge fan of @paulg's essays in college. I was actually depressed that my desire to start a startup or do something entrepreneurial was basically hopeless.

Working on the promising podcast I was doing as a side project? A beyond impossible pipe dream.

Even after 9 years, my dad wasn't able to get a green card - and the lines were only getting longer over time. I figured I'd be an old man before I could quit some FANG job and build my own thing.

By some miracle, COVID travel restrictions cleared out the lines, and I got my green card literally months before I would have aged out.

If not for this unbelievable coincidence, I would not be hosting the podcast.

In the best case, I would be shifting pixels around in the 3rd sub-sub-menu of some big tech software.

I'm incredibly grateful I made it through.

But it's unconscionable that we put the kids of high skilled immigrants through all this anxiety, and in many cases make them repeat the nerve-racking indentured life trajectory that they had to watch their parents go through.

Germany: Learn German if you want jobs here.
🙋🏻: Yes sir! Definitely!

USA: Learn English if you want to stay in this country.
🙋🏻: Yes sir! Gladly!

Karnataka: We'd encourage & respect you more if you learnt our language😊
🙎🏻: How dare you?! Forcing us to learn YOUR language?!😠

If you see that God is in the business of protecting your preferred presidential candidate from death, but not the other person at the rally, or school children, or immigrants, or Palestinians, then it may be that you’re confusing your own political bias for God.
