Q has reminded us repeatedly that together, we are strong. As the false "narrative" is destroyed and the divisive machinery put in place by the Deep State fails, the fact that patriotism has no skin color or political party is exposed for all to see.

Those who attack you.
Those who mock you.
Those who cull you.
Those who control you.
Those who label you.
Do they represent you?
Or, do they represent themselves (in some form)?
Mental Enslavement.
The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding ‘mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of ‘group-think’), but, more importantly, aid in the construction of a vehicle (a ‘ship’) that provides the scattered (‘free thinkers’) with a ‘starter’ new social-networking platform which allows for freedom of thought, expression, and patriotism or national pride (the feeling of love, devotion and sense of attachment to a homeland and alliance with other citizens who share the same sentiment).
When ‘non-dogmatic’ information becomes FREE & TRANSPARENT it becomes a threat to those who attempt to control the narrative and/or the stable.
When you are awake, you stand on the outside of the stable (‘group-think’ collective), and have ‘free thought’.
"Free thought" is a philosophical viewpoint which holds that positions regarding truth should be formed on the basis of logic, reason, and empiricism, rather than authority, tradition, revelation, or dogma.
When you are awake, you are able to clearly see.
The choice is yours, and yours alone.
Trust and put faith in yourself.
You are not alone and you are not in the minority.
Difficult truths will soon see the light of day.

In the battle between those who strip us our constitutional rights, we can't afford to let false divisions separate us any longer. We, and our country, will be forever made stronger by diligently seeking the truth, independence and freedom of thought.

EPA says the risk is low? Well that settles it for me. I’m sure the CDC has already agreed. What-—could-—go-—wrong? Do spotted owls live there? Not seeing a problem with radioactive snakes? Is this stuff what the drones have been looking for?
In the biblical context ‘why do the unbelievers rage’. Nation or just the unchurched.
Heathen often refers to someone not belonging to a widely practiced religion, especially in historical Christian contexts, while Pagan is broadly used for people practicing polytheistic or non-Abrahamic religions.

The video from Mackey that prompted the profane response from Musk:

About 20 years ago, a company hired me and 3 other people (2 foreigners) on contract to do some coding.
They also hired a company with a large number (dozens? hundreds?) of people (many/most? foreigners) and spent over $2 BILLION dollars to do pretty much the same thing that the 4 of us were doing, but in a different computer language.
At the time I left, the $2billion project was still not completed.
I can’t help but wonder if a lot of this crap is just money laundering. No sane person would have continued to pour so much money into such a sinkhole for money with no results for so long.
This was not the first time I saw this, but it was the most costly.
That article left off the profane part 😮
It does carry the implication that it is referring to an “other” nation.
A nation(people) that are not God’s chosen nation.
The Abrahamic Hebrews.
Remember, that's the same cost as the Obamacare website

Your neighbor is almost correct in his judgement as to why he can’t get all he “engineers” he’d like. And when he, and many others, say “engineer” that’s generally not quite what they mean. In the last three, or so, decades “engineer” has gotten to mean geeks, keyboard cowboys, code writers, data processors, etc.
But “engineer” is a real thing and there aren’t many of us. to wit: I’m the only one from my high school class of @100. In my ball playing years no one, not one, other person was in a class I was taking. In my University of 6,000+ students the engineering college was just 350 together in all engineering branches. That’s about 5%.
In my old industrial organization of something over 6,500 people fewer than 100 were graduate engineers and only a dozen of them were doing actual engineering type work.
As a registered professional engineer I’m one of about a hundred in a state of over one million people.
Asking for engineers but not having appropriate work for them is a major downer in the “help wanted” market. Sometimes it’s a vanity thing on the part of the boss. It takes serious leg work to visit the places that produce engineers. You can’t find them with a cute web page. By definition engineers are builders, of one thing or another, and employers have to show them they have something productive for them to work at.
And I really doubt that the East Indians produce a higher % of actual engineers than anyone else does. With over a billion of them there are no doubt more folks trying to avoid starvation. That’s the pool that the Swammi and Dutch have been able to hire from.
And Trump has it right. They should not be hired to replace otherwise qualified Americans. By the same token, truly qualified Americans should have zero problem signing on someplace else.
An actual graduate engineer will have zero problems finding his first job. A big bizness recruiter will be there with a plane ticket and a moving voucher. Your neighbor needs to fire up his bus and make the rounds of engineering colleges if he truly needs that kind of help. And you said “contracts.” If your neighbor can’t guarantee some sort of stability he has a long road to hoe.

Dreadnaughts. surpassed? Well, yeah, sort of. Our own Iowa class boats would qualify as dreadnaughts and while they are parked they are still complete and serviceable. We just repainted the Jersey this year and one snotty move out of the Syrians and it’s Anchors Aweigh. The Kuwaitis remember.
That’s helpful. Thank you for taking the time to explain that fully.

We have a good number of electrical engineers in the power industry, as one would expect. Tons more of us are more of hands-on technician types. You kind of need that system of checks and balances.
Of course, the industry requires a sharp mind for at least a good portion of the jobs, engineer or not.
Not all of our “engineers” are registered Professional Engineers, but most attain that status after a couple of years. Experience might be a requirement, I don’t know.
I seem to recall, and I could be way off base, that one could be a certified professional electrical engineer without having an engineering degree, but I don’t know how true that is nor how long ago that may have been if it’s true.
We do have a number of semi-foreign people in the engineering hierarchy these days. I don’t know if they’re H1B or people that came to the US as a youth - I have never asked, but many of the “foreign-sounding” ones have been at my present/past employer for a few years now.
As you noted, there are technician positions that are called “engineer” but the people doing them are not engineers. Not that they’re bad at their job, but my understanding of engineer is probably more like yours. They’re field technicians that troubleshoot and rework control wiring and things like that. I did that kind of work a while back, and it was very enjoyable. The downside was that I had to climb up on large power transformers occasionally, and I was not really good about heights. But you gotta play the cards you’re dealt. I moved into operations and never looked back.
Oh, yeah, some of our engineers are doing coding, keyboard stuff, data processing, etc. as you noted. A couple of them are really good at it, while others seem to have sought out the easy route. Non-critical path for some.

In High School she did math and science Olympiads. In college she spent her summers rebuilding engines for Delta. She was HEAVILY recruited coming out of Georgia Tech. On top of that, she's cute as a button.

It’s a two step process in most, if not all, states to get a Professional Engineer certification. Don’t know of any exceptions and there is a national standard. (big book right over thar). The first step is the EIT (engineer-in-training) test which can be taken after 4 years of school or work. Then it takes 4 more years of related work to qualify to take the PE exam. And one needs a sign-off by three other professionals to get to take the test. It’s technically possible to not be a college grad to take the tests but those tests are serious stuff with a heavy math component. I remember my own ME PE test had a lot of heat transfer problems and without some serious study I don’t know how one would make it thru?
I qualified both as an ME and by experience as a surveyor which also requires a certification.
It’s noteworthy the things that would require a PE EE sign-off in your field: new power lines, new generation plants, power distribution level changes, all of which would be above the geek level. The kinds of things that make the boss check the company liability insurance.
There’s another phrase you might see: “Operating engineer” for those hands on types who actually run stuff.
