- rs999gti 3y agoIt's still not forced to work, unless going back to your home country is worse than working at Twitter?
- Scalene2 3y agoWould anyone get a visa to work in another country if it would not be better than being in their home country?
- lanstin 3y agoMaybe if they were unsure about which they preferred.
- dawnbreez 3y agoFor some people, "going back to your home country" means going back to a place where basic human rights are not protected by law. Further, I'm not sure what having your visa revoked would do to your future immigration prospects--not to mention that, once that visa is revoked, you're technically "in the country illegally", and you may have heard about how badly our legal system treats people, both with and without citizenship.
- amf12 3y agoHave you moved to another country across the world, made it your home, and had to choose between doing stupid things for a corporation bought by a new CEO or uproot your life and go back home? As much as it's sounds like an easy decision, most people won't uproot their life for Twitter.
