Summary
Vivek Ramaswamy criticized American culture for prioritizing “normalcy” over excellence, which leads tech companies hiring foreign-born workers over Americans.
In a post on X, he argued that U.S. culture celebrates mediocrity and undervalues nerdiness, hard work, and academic achievement.
His comments sparked backlash across the political spectrum, with critics labeling him out of touch with American culture.
The controversy may jeopardize his standing in the Trump administration.
Isn’t this the same guy who said “weekends were a mistake”?
People like this have fully infiltrated the US tech sector, and have been kicking and screaming about how the workers there aren’t killing themselves for their jobs anymore. They have completely embraced classism and believe they are at the top of some imaginary tower or food chain that allows them to make idiotic statements like this. Anti-egalitarian at the core.
They’ve already stripped all the benefits of working in tech away from the workers, and are now complaining that the horse won’t pull the cart anymore now that the carrot is gone. Pieces of shit.
No, that is Narayana Murthy, the billionaire founder of Infosys - a company that makes its money through indentured servitude by exploiting H1B visas.
Lol. Well that makes total sense. Guess they have similar mindsets then.
