@TrustScore_1 Every cloud has its silver lining

An Indian engineer at Meta gets the layoff email at 11pm Bangalore time. His wife is on H-4. His kid is in 3rd grade in Seattle. His Bellevue apartment lease has 8 months left. His H-1B clock just started ticking — 60 days. Meta's stock went up on the news. Zuck called it becoming more efficient. This is what AI transformation actually looks like for 2 lakh Indians abroad. Ai impact on Indians abroad is highest

@NormanDodd_knew @_jburden The monologues are top notch from Burden

If you haven’t had a chance to check this out yet, you really should. Reviews are in. “Easily my top 3 favorite Stormy Waters interviews this year. Maybe ever.” -John Podhoritz “A panacea of clippable moments, a firehose of vitriolic autism” -Alan Dershowitz

@cornycharles @Yung_Spengler Let’s be real, they would only check if the baby is related to the mother, excluding the father altogether

@Yung_Spengler They should test babies before sending them home to make sure no mixups happen. It happens way more often than people want to believe.

Lots of debate in the comments which is why BAP’s idea of mandatory/automatic paternity tests at the hospital makes sense

@PeterRQuinones As an Australian native, I’m convinced major media outlets are pumping out low hanging fruit such as this to farm engagement. Although this is true (lol), some articles are such obvious engagement farming.

@TheBlackHorse65 It brings home the reality (as hard a pill it is to swallow) that so much of our time, effort, and political capital was wasted on culture war issues. Many in my life are still wasting their time on “slop”

This video has such a complex meta element to it; AA reviews a Slop reaction podcast, talking about Ben Shapiro's attempt to use "Slop" as a slur against Tucker Carlson & Nick Fuentez. Ben Shapiro et. al., were the original target of the term Slop Right for their use of Culture-War issues as a distraction from power-politics. Shapiro correctly identifies Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentez, and Candice Owens, as perveyors of Slop [Aliens, Bridget Macron, Podcaster Drama, etc....]; which surround their substantive content. Ironically, Shapiro's tirade against Tucker et. al. can be correctly categorized as Slop because of how it's conducted. AA finds himself struggling not to concede the point to Shapiro because of the position that Shapiro is an enemy in the Schmitian sense. What a tangled web we weave.....

@TiniCapital @mtgt0mw Yeah, you would think at the very least if there was going to be replacement migration you would diversify the origins so as to ensure there is no demographic large enough to sway government policy

@mtgt0mw diverse migrant base is infinitely better than just a huge block of 1 type ( indians )

Why is Brazil the fastest growing source of migrants to Australia. I smell a migration scam.

Let me speak plainly. The managerial state has no right to demand “social cohesion” from a people it has deliberately replaced. You cannot flood a nation with millions of outsiders, destroy its identity, and then lecture the original population about “cohesion.” This is not a social policy. This is demographic conquest disguised as governance. I owe this system nothing. No loyalty. No compliance. No respect.

the fact that acquiring Aussie citizenship is a “severing”, and that so many Chinese are reluctant to do so, is exactly why it’s important to insist that that they leave if they’re not willing to sever

There are those who think mixing the world will make our differences disappear and then there are those who share their blasian perspective on wasian meetups

The single idea that explains everything. Legal positivism. Most Australians have never heard the term, yet it is the quiet philosophical revolution that dismantled the original Australia. Legal positivism is the belief that whatever the Parliament passes and the courts uphold is automatically legitimate law — there is no higher moral, natural, or historical authority. If the state declares it, it is law. End of story. This single philosophical shift is the master key that unlocked every major problem we face today. Because once you accept that the state can redefine the nation without the consent of the people, then everything else follows. And here is the brutal truth: If you are truly Australian — if you are proud of this nation and how it was built, if you believe in the original compact between the people and the state — then you are forced to reach one unavoidable conclusion: The current managerial state is morally illegitimate. It has no moral right to rule over us. It changed the fundamental character of this country without ever asking the Australian people for their consent. It replaced the old constitutional compact with a new post-national order, and then declared its own actions lawful under the rules of legal positivism. Every grievance we see — mass immigration without consent, the erosion of free speech, the institutional inversion of ASIO, the expanding surveillance powers — all of it flows from this one philosophical root. Of course they will call this destabilising. But questioning the moral legitimacy of the state has always been the first step toward real change — because no system that has lost its moral foundation deserves to endure. Legal positivism didn’t just change the rules. It replaced the moral foundation of the nation with raw state power. And that is why the old Australia and the current managerial state are fundamentally incompatible.

@russtime99 @fm_aus Yes, just interesting who they chose to impact first here

@andrewpeter115 @fm_aus Migration was always about suppressing wages

Yeah great, two thirds of software developers are born overseas, software industry is basically a shell of its former self for the workers due to massive influx of displacement indian migration for IT. Forcing thousands of young people into construction to make decent coin, now the government wants to destroy that industry too. They hate us and want to get rid of us.

@TheGreenGoat79 @IfindRetards Burke would probably be my number 1. most despised

@IfindRetards Fucking Oath he's retarded Cunt couldnt organise a piss-up in a brewery, pretty much the 3rd most hated wanker in Oz currently That bit is debatable, there are a lot of front runners, Pretty much the whole labour government is despised by the majority of Oz

American followers, trust me on this one. The Aussies will sound off in the comments to let you know I'm right.

@jakeshieldsajj People act as if either of them being “Feds” is a bad thing? Same with tucker. Don’t you want the federal government to openly want a split with the Jews?

This is Insane and a flat-out lie Earlier today I was still trying to kill the divide with Nick and Dan but now it seems clear they are both feds I had tremendous respect for Nick even when we fought but seeing him make such an outrageous claim makes me wonder who is paying him

@dorga @HVNYrefugee Yeah I’ve only ever been to the south island of NZ but what hit me was the difference in the trees vs Aus. Also (I was there in winter) the grass in NZ was not as green as I thought it would be. I think between 2. And 4. They could be either Aus or SA.

@HVNYrefugee 1. US - Truck in image. 2. AU - Like NZ, but no NZ trees and not windswept enough. 3. NZ - Trees 4. ZA

One of these is in the US. One is in South Africa. One is in Australia. One is in New Zealand.

@bhanschrift @HVNYrefugee 2. Could be Aus. It reminds me of my Pops old property. 1. Is definitely not Aus because of the car but the other 3 all look like places in Australia I’ve been lol

@HVNYrefugee This is really tricky, they all look like New Zealand to me. 1. The states 2. SA 3. New Zealand, though could maybe be Tas or the Garden Route. 4. My gut says NZ, but by process of elimination, and the fact I don't recognise the three triangle symbol on the railing... Aus.

@JayantBhandari5 In my opinion, you can tell a lot about a people by their ability to be ok with solitude. All the great things man has accomplished in arts, science, etc need solitude. The Indian, however, seems to always be on the phone to relatives, as if they can’t live without them at all

Untrue. Indians desperately seek noise, poop-smell, chaos, etc. If they don't have these they feel lonely and get an existential crisis. They recreate these in the West in the ghettos they move to. They move to the West ONLY for money.

@WorldByWolf @Nigel_Farage Anything but deport foreigners

How did @Nigel_Farage respond to the Golders Green stabbing? He said he’d ban the IRGC, ban the Muslim brotherhood, end diplomatic relations with Iran, and give more funding to the Jewish police force Shomrim. Which means Israel now knows terror attacks get them what they want.

@mrkit2u @kunley_drukpa That’s a retarded position. India is hell, don’t make excuses for them

I’ve spent many months in India and have done business there for 15 years. The problems you describe are all related to you wanting to do things your culture’s way—because it is the right way!—and then becoming outraged that it didn’t go so well for you in someone else’s culture. Then you cast around for blame and come up with this “low trust” theory. 🙄 When in India, rather than rowing upstream, just do things their way, and you’ll have a much nicer time. Local guides, friends, business partners, and allies help a lot with this. India is the world’s largest (imperfect) democracy. Have some respect for what they have achieved with so many people and so little money.

HOW SOCIAL TRUST IS ERODED - A VISIT TO INDIA 🇮🇳 🧵 A few years ago now I spent some time in India. One of the more lasting impressions I have from that period was the degree to which the low trust environment there (of a kind) wore me down mentally and transformed my attitude towards public spaces from a by disposition fairly ‘high trust’ person to being much more cynical and constantly on guard - ie being ‘low trust’. Over the space of the first month or so, because of the environment, experiencing real psychogenic anguish at the mental transition from being basically well meaning and otherwise liberal to irritable, combative and developing (experience-informed) prejudices. My assumptions about how easily you can sustain ‘high levels of social trust’ were shredded. Many people take for granted that high levels of social trust can be upheld without excessive coercion on a sort of naive libertarian basis of most people naturally being ‘fairly decent’ and so behaving ‘fairly decently’. Though I’d encountered this ‘low trust’ behaviour in a many other countries it was in india, because of how common and obtrusive it was, that it became impossible to avoid internalising that a lot of people are not in fact ‘fairly decent’ and that if enough not ‘fairly decent’ people get together they can easily despoil social environments. Let me give you some examples of the kinds of behaviours you would encounter in India and then explain how prolonged exposure to those behaviours changes you. Granted you are a ‘Mleccha’, a ‘Gora’, (Foreigner, White Man) so qualifier you are treated differently but you still encounter these attitudes appreciably more than you would in many other countries. They do not of course represent the attitude of every Indian (I am an amateur Indologist I love India don’t @ me) but it evidences a certain ‘dog eat dog’ ‘tragedy of the commons’ mindset on the part of a part of the population that results in very appreciable low society wide social trust, at least over certain behaviours. (Others may be more policed eg social roles.) (Incidentally I think this mentality is one of the principal causes for many of India’s systemic problems but that is a separate topic.) • Take a tuk-tuk or taxi. Driver pretends his meter is broken, quotes price ten times more than actual price. Doesn’t have any change, doesn’t have a card machine. Starts arguing with you when you say you are not giving them more money they should have the change. Sometimes will plead for large tip even if you pay them more than the actual price too. To combat this you have to be prepared to argue with the driver every time you take a taxi (start ‘fights’) and bring small change with you everywhere • Taking the Mumbai Metro with a woman (naively), metro is incredibly crowded. Man uses crowd as an excuse to press himself up against the woman, starts masturbating. Woman screams, starts to have panic attack - but crowd doesn’t really react. She runs out crying at next metro stop • Walking around on streets - lots of beggars approach you, often old women, young children, people with some kind of disfigurement, hijra etc. Sometimes they aggressively grab your wrist, your clothes, tug at your shirt and refuse to let go. Often will follow you for a while even if you tell them to go away [1/2]

@The_Scryer @TruthFairy131 Yes

Around 500 Aboriginals in the Northern Territory have surrounded the hospital where the Aboriginal r*pist & murderer of 5 year old Sharon Granites is being treated. The mob are demanding they bring out the murderer for justice. I have no faith in our justice system which is now just a criminal protection system. Let them have him!
