Actually it's worse than that in many cases. Recent US data showed that immigrants were creating jobs for non-immigrants. The crackdown has caused large numbers of American businesses to simply close doors, dumping all of their employees.

Not just recent data. It’s always been that more people create more jobs.

God the amount of anti Indian hate in Canada lately is disgusting. They're not the ones abusing the immigration system, the companies operating in CANADA abusing TFWs are. I don't get why people don't see that and hate the ones actually responsible. Look into ANY problem facing Canada and oops all companies.

People aren't allowed to blame the system, so they blame its victims instead.

Same with the Trans issue ... or anything to do with sexuality ... anyone who is sexually different only occupies about 10% of the population yet politicians have to treat it like some kind of mania.

The most troublesome minority group in the world are rich wealthy oligarchs from all nations.

Also, capitalists and their governmental lackeys have created conditions that caused immigrants to flee their countries - supporting repressive authoritarian regimes that align with their economic interests, going to war and toppling democratic governments that act too much in the interests of their own citizens/local businesses at the expense of foreign interests and become a "threat of a good example", exploiting the countries through imposing "free trade" and debt through the IMF/World Bank/WTO, etc.

It kind of wrecks the message when it’s a twitter blue check account saying it.

[–] _lunar@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 months ago

accounts that were given the blue checkmark pre-elon, back when it was used to verify the authenticity of accounts belonging to public figures (such as mohamad safa), still have those blue checkmarks. this screenshot is pretty old too.
