It's hilarious watching Elon Musk react to the monster he has created on X.
Also why are so many Latin Americans and Serbians/Hungarians/Russians so involved in MAGA discussions and opposed to H1B immigration to the US when they don't even live in the US?
- like_any_other 2y agoBecause the US exports its culture of borders-are-evil to other countries.
- dtquad 2y agoNobody goes to Serbia, Hungaria, Russia, and Latin America except people who are in-route to the US or Western Europe.
- bdangubic 2y agothis is the wildest comment I’ve read on HN this year by far :) might give you serbia, maybe even hungary and russia but latin america…?! just in my small world numerous families go to latin america every year for vacations etc…
- like_any_other 2y agoBut they're exposed to the culture all the same, and are appalled by it - the same reason Italians will argue about food even when they're unaffected by what some foreigner they'll never meet eats.
- DecoySalamander 2y agoMigration from Central Asia is certainly a topic in Russian discourse. Some talk about Uzbeks coming to replace them while "real" Russians die in a war, some extol the virtues of Tajiks who, unlike other lazy Russians, are willing to work in construction for pennies and under inhuman conditions. Frankly, very similar to US talk.
- bdangubic 2y agoserbians specifically gravitate towards Trump because the Democratic establishment (especially Clintons and Bidens) have not been kind… In 2016 election I have heard (numerous times) “I would rather vote for Hitler (or the like) than Hillary” so not as much pro-Trump than anti-alternative to him
