This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.

I bet it is rather that they prefer people who are more familiar with their own culture, language, expectation of work ethics and so on. Skilled workers on work visa can be sourced from all over the globe but they only want Taiwanese.

Which is inherently discriminatory. Especially when their lawyers have absolutely told their executives that and they could care less.

I thought that goes without saying:

  • They already have connections in Taiwan, so that’s the easiest workforce for them to draw from.
  • They have closer language & cultural ease with fellow Taiwanese people than people from anywhere else in the global labor market.

But this article isn’t about Taiwanese H1-B visa workers vs other H1-B workers, it’s about H1-B workers vs domestic workers. The fact that almost all those H1-B workers happen to be Taiwanese is a bit of a red herring.
