Elon Musk Endorses Post Suggesting Americans Are Too ‘Retarded’ To Do Skilled Jobs
Mediaite ^ | 12/27/2024 | Charlie Nash

Billionaire Trump surrogate Elon Musk endorsed a post on Thursday which suggested Americans were too “retarded” to be hired for skilled jobs.

After the South Africa-born CEO of X, SpaceX, and Tesla found himself embroiled in an argument over H-1B visas and the importation of foreign labor over American workers, a pro-Musk account wrote:

So basically the right split into two factions, tech right and right right, and the tech right is like “hey we need h-1b visa people to do the jobs,” and the right right was like “no you need to hire americans,” and the tech right is like “but you guys are retarded,” and the right right is like “well you don’t train us,” and the tech right is like “you can’t outtrain being retarded,” and while all this was going on we learned some people *really* don’t like Indians.

“That pretty much sums it up,” replied Musk, mere hours after defending one of his engineers who posted a series of racist, anti-White rants. “This was eye-opening.”

That pretty much sums it up.

This was eye-opening.

On Thursday, Musks’s DOGE co-head Vivek Ramaswamy also received backlash after he suggested companies were not hiring Americans because they were raised in a culture of “mediocrity.”

President-elect Donald Trump announced last month that Musk and Ramaswamy would lead the newly-created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) – an announcement praised by many of Trump’s allies and supporters.

In the wake of remarks made by both Musk and Ramaswamy this week, however, many Trump supporters have begun to express concern over their involvement in the second Trump administration.

We are far closer to hitting rock bottom that most realize and the only way we turn this around is the kind of therapy that is being proposed.

Our economy is open. But our school system is controlled by the communists.

We are getting away with it, sort of. Because we are able to attract immigrants like Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy (son of Indian immigrants).

I’m 1989 a Japanese official said that Americans are dumb and lazy.

We, as a county, hated Japan for decades. I ride my Honda to all the meets and we’re really attacked by Harley guys.

Let’s remember that.

It is really getting hard to get a good education in the public school system.

We entered the death spiral in Obama’s second term.

Agreed. I think we're hitting rock bottom here. So we'll have states like Florida starting to explore the use of vouchers.

I live in an apartment community. At first, they would take their trash to dumpsters and just leave it on the ground, spilling out everywhere. Then, when the community implemented an at-your-door valet system (which we all must pay for) they’d overstuff their bags in their bins which leaves an Edward Hopper painting of grease and goo in the breezeways every time the valets take it away.

I still carry out my own trash, put it in the dumpster, and don’t spill anything.

They are so “smart,” so “high-tech,” and so “hard-working” they can’t be bothered to clean up their after themselves.

What the Hell has Vivek done except rip people off and recommend we let in millions of other Indians?

I mean … we did bring a tech super brain into the United States from abroad that was so influential and capable he helped the Republicans win an entire election.

His name was @elonmusk.

We made him a citizen in 2002.

Take away the cookie jar H-1B and see how many of our best and brightest switch careers to IT.

H1B’s can be discussed AFTER we solve our other ‘immigration’ issue.

Magnate schools and private schools still have high IQ students that are well aware of H-1B and the risks of going into IT.

Bottom line is Elon is not wrong in that the US does not produce enough STEM workers for our needs because the H-1B visa has made going into IT too risky for smart white males who,if the even get a job, will be discriminated against.

Fixed it for ya!!
