Irwin Feerst is one of the most “canceled cultured” person in history. It is very difficult to find information about him. Even more difficult in finding information on the H-1B visa program. Which the government has been lying about for more than 10 years now. If you enjoy being lied to try figure out how many of these visas have been issued.

Why? All can produce their 'content' outside of the US.

Many countries have lower income tax rates than the US. The US is one of a few countries which tax ‘worldwide income.’

Yes! I spent three days searching for Irwin feerst online. Found just a few items. The substance of his (many years) campaign— which almost got him an upset election to the IEEE presidency and which took him to washDC to testify in Congress —- etc etc
Just about his whole life is ERASED from history. And he led a very public life .

Agree with his pro- American- jobs- for- American citizens campaign —- agree with it
Or not, his Erasure is scary.

All 4 AI chatbots replied with something like:

“I don’t have any information about Irwin Feerst in my training data. This appears to be a private individual or someone not widely documented in publicly available sources.”

That is really damning!

That was my thinking, we do have the internet now.
They can broadcast their boobies from anywhere.

Its not like boats full of old men have to go to India to watch or to pay in person.

Wow!!!
Yes, those AI “answers” are all consistent either the paucity of information about Feerst I discovered with my web searches.

If “they” can erase such a public figure as Feerst, they can erase any of us.

An example of why “they” erased him from history —-

“Nope. Trump made it clear with Ingraham he’s India first. “

Answer this, if he’s so hot for Indians, why did he raise the H-1B fees to $100K?

Why are the Indians currently in the US excluded from the $100K fee.

There’s a fee, with plenty of exclusions.
