Apple Inc (AAPL.O) on Monday said it will establish a new campus in North Carolina that will house up to 3,000 employees, expand its operations in several other U.S. states and increase its spending targets with U.S. suppliers.

Just in time for a takeover of North Carolina. And does anybody think North Carolinians will tell Apple "don't come here", "we don't want your leftism"?

I doubt it. This will turn N.C. permanently blue, this is the same formula big tech has for turning Texas.

Huh? The apple folks are opening a school?

[BlackAdderess]

I’d rather have them building here in the research triangle than building in China. There will be more good jobs and more reasonable cost of living for transferees.

[BlackAdderess]

We’ll gladly take them :)

So North Carolina will be the next state to be overrun by H1B Indians? Lovely.

[ProgressingAmerica]

Worse. Overrun by Californians intent on voting the same way they currently vote now.

No More Yankee woksters and Indian H1Bs.

This will turn N.C. permanently blue,

Pretty close already.

A lot of people who are leaving New York and California and other hell holes are actually Republicans. So 3,000 people working for Apple is going to tilt NC that much? North Carolina is also a major blue collar manufacturing state and those industries also keep moving to the state.

Already is. Morrisville is already overrun by H1Bs:

Great news for America and North Carolina.

Lots of jobs!

Not a school - big corps who have big corporate parks have been calling them campuses for a decade or so.

[personalaccts]

Wonderful more liberal I’m so excited 🤮

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Ah, time to further woke-ify North Carolina!

Now for the fine print...

Check out the bribe Apple got from NC.

That great news comes with a huge price tag.

Fortunately its only 3,000. No doubt though, most will be Leftists.

Much bigger human cost as Indians get to bring their families here. So their H4EAD spouses take additional jobs from Americans and their kids will eventually take college admissions spots and later jobs from Americans using OPT
