Can confirm, after the troika's intervention in Portugal after the 2008 crash, I believe it was in 2011 when we had around 150000 recently licensed medical professionals emigrating, mostly to the UK. It was the most severe bleed of highly skilled labor since fuck-if-I-remember during the dictatorship period.

I also used to work in a doctor's office where two of our patients were a couple from Algeria. The wife used to be a professor of organic chemistry, and the husband used to be an accountant. Both of them were unable to transfer their professional credentials to the US and are working menial jobs for minimum wage. It's shit.

To really clarify, outsourcing doesn't benefit the governments at all because corporations are incredibly slippery with taxes. They can redefine "profits" until they pay no tax. All the tax that they cannot avoid is centered around *labor.* So outsourcing as I mentioned in another comment is a way of a rich person draining the wealth from his community AND government AND the target of outsourcing. The labor isn't paid, so the market shrinks, the government isn't getting any taxes so it starts struggling with debt and makes cut backs so the market shrinks more and the only person in the situation improved is the rich guy who outsourced.

I used to work for a smoke shop and it was 5 minutes to close one night. This lady pulls up fast as fuck and almost hit my car that had my gf and son in it, apparently she waved at them.

The boys have a point on people start using English names when they visit US for a period of time. I have seen this phenomenon especially in churches. My dad, while visiting me, was named "John" even though he was in the church only because he was curious about the place. That being said, for people who are not sold on the "American Dream" or "Western Ideals", introducing themselves with English names is just for connivence. It can be because a given name is not at all important in certain cultures and for some individuals, and they will only care about how other pronounce their surname, and they get tired of how people butchering their name. It can also be because that some languages are not phonetic, so some just don't give a fuck how others pronounce their lettered name since "others" couldn't understand their original name anyway. In my personal case, 1. I was tired of people butchering my name and calling me Molly - Elizabeth (don't ask me how that happened, cause Idk) 2. I was really weird out on I had to choose a feminine or masculine name in English. 3. So I made up a name that sounds English (so they could pronounce it), and I don't have to explain what my given name means (no one understands anyway).

Speaking on the name changing aspect of immigrated labor: You literally get ostracized if you have a difficult-to- pronounce name, also less job opportunities, difficulty connecting with others etc. I get your point, it's kinda like submitting your identity to westernization, but also habibi, think about who made this hostile environment that's so intolerant of anything that it doesn't consider self in the first place.

I struggle with addiction. I can be sober, and am only smoking tobbacco, weed and drinking alcohol. I totally agree with Yugopnik. The question is, is it resilience that has kept me on weaker substances, or being broke?

I also tell them my actual name before giving the shortened version if they can’t pronounce it. I’m not Arab by the way, lots of cultures steal from Arabic/Islamic names lol.

I have a very specific question for Hakim, and the rest, Hakim had openly denied dialectics as simply a philosophical excuse or a simple hypothesis not based in the real material world. Hakim is an idealist as obviously he believes in an alternate reality from material world (heaven). My criticism is the following, dialectics as explained extensive in Engels anti during, and obviously Lenin etc... For a Marxist is a proven condition of matter in motion, as Engels Said "dialectics are abstracted from the processes of observing the natural world" so for example the tension of atoms where neutrons, protons, electrons, anti neutrons, anti protons etc... All take place in the building block of matter the atom crating a unity of opposites . So that is a very specific instance of one of the rules of dialectical materialism (unity of opposites) seen in nature as well as for example light behaving both as particle and wave . However hakim denies this. And hakim denies dialectics exist in the material world as on objective rule which goes against the dialectical materialism which is the scientific basis of Marxism. So please I would like you 3 could address this point specifically. Are 3 rules of dialectical materialism observed objectively in the material world? Yes or no? 1.unity of opposites 2. Quantative change leads to qualitative change 3. Negation of the negation For a Marxist dialectics are the driving process behind development, and these rules were observed as universal rules of matter in motion. To deny dialectical materialism as a true existing objective condition of the material world is to deny Marxism.

I: Seconding this!

When people argue for illegal "unskilled" immigration and list the reasons I always respond "but what will we do without da slaves!?" My father in law walked across the border because there literally wasn't enough food. He lived in a little shack with 15 men and little other than a full belly and a boss who would threaten ICE at the slightest complaint. He said "this is what I came here for?" Fortunately he's doing better now but his story illustrates they are brought in *to be slaves.* The problem with the deprogram guys here is they seem to think slavery is somehow beneficial to a country. That it's somehow highly productive and produces a thriving economy, the historical record is... it doesn't. Few are more accustomed to various forms of slavery than the US right? And you'd go "Aha! The us is so wealthy and powerful! It must be because of slavery!" No, no it is not. Why did the north win the civil war? Because the north's economic power was roughly ten to fifteen times the neo roman slave economy of the south simply put. Look at a map of the infrastructure density. The record in the US and the UK show that these slave owners don't invest in railroads or factories, things that they don't understand they simply buy more land and more slaves. They don't even care for what they have, burning through land and human beings as "part of the process", resulting in the need to drive westward, the trail of tears and the civil war over the Republican demand to contain slavery where it already existed. Because all the free men had to compete with slaves and there was no investment in anything other than slave labor the US south in the 1850s was described "as desolate as post Napoleon France." If you think about Marxism's perspective of the key contradiction in capitalist society this makes sense. Capitalists want to pay as little as possible, however if the general population has no money to spend then the market doesn't exist. So each year the south got poorer and poorer and the slave owners got increasingly heavy levels of debt, resentment against the north (that they were dragging down too) was rising before the Republican victory. There's even modern parallels. When the US decided to start exploiting east Asian slave labor (sorry but if the workers live in the factory complex and they keep nets up or bars up to prevent the workers from jumping to their deaths it's slave labor. Foxcon is not the only offender) the industrial heart of the US got gutted. If you overlay a map of opioid abuse with the rust belt it's almost an exact match. Further American capital is waking up to realize they actually... didn't benefit much from this arrangement especially as they lost fortunes in 2008 when this destructive process caused it's first explosion. When the deprogram guys try to claim "the western wellfare states are paid for by that exploitation" I always laugh because *no, no they are not.* In every case, from India's exploitation under the British Emprie, to the US exploiting Chinese and Central American slaves it has resulted in a small cadre of people draining wealth from both societies for their personal benefit making everyone but them poorer. it's a nice narrative that US imperialism benefits it but it doesn't, it benefits a few rich people and no one else.

I love you 😘

13:27 for the "they are coming for our jobs" bs it has always made me mad mostly bc they are mad at the wrong thing. You should be mad that the system allows corporations to bring in people from outside your borders bc they will work for less and do the jobs Americans largely don't want to do and/or would push back the most against. That runs into the entire problem we have with always having a, what do you call it, labor force that's without work bc then you can't stand up to your corporate boss and demand more and better conditions bc they will just let you go and bring someone in for the same or less. The best argument against this I have come up with is to try and put everything back on to the bourgeoisie. Tell them that the immigrants are coming over bc the corporations are bringing them over for cheaper labor so you need to stop them lowering your wages and give you worker rights so that they can't take your jobs.

I have a few points I'd like to share about immigration. It's normal for men especially to be conserned about immigration. It's not so much a cuck fantasy as it is mate guarding. To the average man of country A every woman from that country that's of a reproductive age is a potential mate. Therefore it's logical that men will attempt to have as little competition for those women as possible. Why brown/black immigrants are such a problem is because of how radically different they are from the white man in general. It's a completely different culture. Which means that any mixed children will not be a part of the white culture, but the culture of the father. Repeat that over enough time with enough mixed marriages and the original white culture disappears. Just like white settlers destroyed the cultures of Latin America. And yes the conquistadores used a lot more than just breeding them out, but that doesn't mean that breeding someone out isn't a valid form of destruction of a nation/ethnicity.
