Amerie is a black american/ADOS
She is a descendent of slaves who built this country. And are owed immensely till this day

She has every right to critique the US

So that "well leave" don't work on her like yall think.

Aframs are the one group who have every right to say what we want to say in this country

Yup, I say this as STEM gang and I'm looking at the international competition in the face every single day and see what these companies are doing. We just hired someone from Colombia for example.

Next thing, A.I about to hit.

If this country really cared about American education and American citizens, then it wouldn't let these companies hire immigrants.

We know that isn't going to happen though.

Once those countries caught up to our schools' STEM programs (happened around mid 2010's when ABET started reviewing more International programs), it was a wrap.
Have they really caught up or are they just cheaper to employ? I've seen and heard of so many horror stories about overseas tech labor. Not to mention working alongside them for years. And they aren't held to the same standard as workers in the US.

shyt, many have caught up and surpassed.

You look at a school like The University of Oregon, respected name, but ranked 1000th+ in the world when it comes to science, engineering and math. There are now so many students and competition out there today worldwide.
What used to only be a competition of about 340 million in the pool is now 8 billion people to compete against.


Additionally, ABET is the engineering standard America has used for decades and only in the 2010's have more consistently started to look at international schools' programs. Now, many schools around from around the world are inspected and confirmed by ABET to meet those same standards. If you filter for non-US countries you can see how many have only been reviewed in the last decade:
That just basically means competition about to get thick, we're only seeing the beginning of it. Those who graduated internationally from an ABET school that was accredited in 2020 are about to hit the job force starting either next year (most likely the year after because most engineers will take 5+ years).

Remember, ABET is the reason why many engineering schools without big names around America are seen as legit engineering schools like any private university because they've inspected the curriculum. That's why some state schools engineering graduates will get hired over some kid who graduated from the same program at USC. As long as an engineering program is ABET accredited, the program is deemed legit (unless it's like a Caltech or M.I.T who don't bother with ABET because everyone knows they're top 10). Now that same institution has started to look at schools outside the country and deemed their education on par with the standards we have here.

The big kicker here is that many of these schools are free for citizens of those countries to attend. So they get the same ABET degree, but don't fall into $80k of student debt. The can make their money work for them right when they get hired, while people here are paying back their bullshyt loans. Again, if this country really cared about it's citizens like that, this wouldn't be a problem.

Eh,

Only the blind would agree with her. She's not wrong, but she ain't really saying nothing considering the entire globe really ain't on shyt.

China has its citizens under strict control and mute. Saudi Arabia literally has slaves. The entirety of African seems corrupt from the bone. India is a complete shythole. The Middle East has been fighting for hundreds of years. North Korea is a death camp. South America is nothing but death and violence. The only truly good is Japan who are working themselves to death and Switzerland who keep to themselves.

Watching so-called liberal posters use the same arguments as racists use to discredit any criticism of the west is nasty.

Edit: She's not praising any other country or claiming they embody those values. She's highlighting Western hypocrisy. The West uses its political will to impose those values on others, they cite those values when they're sanctioning others, and they cite them when it's time to invade them too. The point is, the West lacks the political credibility to do this, because the standard isn't real.

Everybody already knew this.

The world largely ain't shyt. If Hitler won that war we'd be speaking German.

West ain't perfect, be nice if it was. Despite everything people are still coming here.

This is false.

Most people who move to the West do it because it's richer not because they find it morally superior.


The main engine of immigration is economic, not admiration for the 'values' of a society.


That's why damn Russia is the second or the third destination n the world for immigration.

You won't tell me Russia is the best second country in the world.


But it is morally superior in the sense that you can be of any religion, lgbtq, have premarital random sex, etc.

The west is on the brink of collapse, and its crazy because supporting izrahell is literally the straw thats going to break the camels back. IF all the arabs/iran/ME states unite, or go to war with izrahll, this isnt 1967, their military's are actually war ready for the most part. It will be a major problem. Kids in flip flops in Palestine are giving IOF issues :mjlol: It makes sense why the west has purposely kept that region unstable, Syria military is pretty spent with their civil war, lebanon economy is in the dumps, iraq post sadam is weak, egypt post brotherhood millitary control, but in general the millitarys of those counries are ready to go in comparison to 1967 when izrahell attacked them...The american public needs to stand up to these war mongers, and zionists in office. But most idiots here drank the zionist propaganda kool aid.

So Arabs/africa on 1 front, Russia on another front, china on another front...Europe is useless....curtains for western dominance.
Too many ignorant americans believe the military is protecting our freedoms. We have the largest oceans in the world on both coasts and have the second most nuclear weapons in the world; no one is invading us any time soon. Both political parties agree to spend trillions more on the military due to the lobbying from weapons manufactures as well as enforcing U.S. interests overseas. Interests that don't benefit 98% of american civilians. All the while white supremacists continue to hold monthly mass murder clinics across the country.

You state that only the blind would agree with her and then in the next sentence you mentioned she isn't wrong.
That aside, you are implying that the world is shyt so no point in complaining about it. Not try to fix it just let it be shyt
