One Silicon Valley executive had a few choice words to describe Americans living in the heart of the nation, and they were not flattering.
Melinda Byerley, MBA and founder of Timeshare CMO, a Silicon Valley-based tech start-up, tweeted out Saturday afternoon describing what middle America could do to get more jobs in their area.

I have no doubt that there are stupid people that voted for Trump and voted for him for the wrong reasons. My question is, do all of these elitist leftist liberals not believe that there are people out there that are just as stupid who pull the lever for D every election cycle?
I’ve never heard stories of Republicans getting people out of old folks homes (who most likely have no business voting due to alzheimers etc..) and getting them to the voting booths. I have heard those stories about Democrats.
This guy is a real piece of work!
I used the phrase “riff-raf” as a sort of joke. Fact is, when it comes to employers, these people are simply bad news. Riff-raf is, literally, a compliment, within the context.
We welcome them to our church and do all we can to help them, but people gonna do what people gonna do. When I lived in Seattle, our church started a “feed the local poor” program. We spent a lot of time on logistics, etc. to get it all going. Then we had our first friday and helped a fair amount of people. Then we showed up on Sunday and all of our musical equipment was stolen. The program was ended immediately.
There are dogs and there are coyotes. You don’t want to get them mixed up, though you can show Christian love until you learn which you are dealing with. I believe the bible calls them “sheep and goats”.
From earlier post: “...In Seattle, the various income levels and cultures dont really have to mix. Its a big place. Some shop at Bellevue Square and others shop at Costco, while others shop at Wal-Mart...”
You really do need to get out and go live with other “elites” such as yourself...
You are EXACTLY like the woman this thread is about...
I live in flyover country and are quite happy about it. Family has lived in this county since 1889. I traveled for a living for 30+ years. Have seen a lot of small towns. Want nothing to do with cities.
Opinions vary. ;)
“I just reported her LinkedIn profile for admin review because she is a intolerant, vulgar elitist with no respect for others outside her sphere of influence.”
In her startup’s information and on linkedin she repeatedly points out her company only uses “native english speakers” based in the US. Sounds biased to me. She also doesnt seem to be able to keep a job for 2 years.
Your anecdotal evidence is not persuasive, and is not reflective of “middle America” in the least.
Shes got that Rosanne Barr as a teenager thing going. Her bitterness and idiocy will take its toll.
I have lived in the south for 68 years (except for military service) and you are full of it...
Sounds exactly like a trip to our local Whole Foods store. :)
She needs to stay where she is... she wants to exploit cheap labor and get away with it based on her 'love of diversity' and nice restaurants. It doesn't get any shallower than that...
Imported for sex in the lumber camps??
If so, why is she still here spewing her hatred and intolerance toward ordinary Americans?
Can't we lock her up for a "hate crime?"
Even worse...a great many of the available timeshare locations are in rural areas in flyover country...the very people who supply the thing that drives her business.
Not that much here on FR
Liberal elites in SF live high based on exploiting poor third world illegals for low level jobs ... and exploiting cheap foreign tech labor for the ‘better’ jobs.
I don’t know how this woman lives with herself.
