Since January 1st, 2024, 5700+ companies have announced mass layoffs.

So I ask you... for how many of those layoffs did the workers have to endure the POTUS and some megalomaniac billionaire with a chainsaw and a social media company maligning them, calling them lazy and worthless, accusing them wrongfully of committing fraud, etc. etc. though multiple television appearances and social media posts?

I'll wait.

There is no F-in parallel and I'm sick of private sector people pretending they have any F-in clue what this is like.

Just amazing how humans become empathetic when it happens to them.

This has been going on in IT world since 2000. The Bush Immigration Act of 1990 was passed to import millions of cheap foreign workers to keep US wages low and both parties keep expanding H1B and then created OPT out of thin air.

And whenever we complained, we get people pounding that you are stupid, lazy, worthless, why cant you compete with cheap foreign labor. They enjoy the pain of people that have been in a career for 20 years getting replaced with cheaper labor.

Just remember, they are not putting H1Bs in your cubes as you leave. They should be doing that to save money. Then you can feel the joy of watching a 26 year employee get fired and having an H1B in his cube the next week asking in broken English how to connect to the printer.

Maybe read a little folks. Maybe have compassion for US citizens being replaced by overwhelming immigration. Stop focusing on cheap iPhones.

Can you find me something (anything?) that supports the bolded? Especially from government employees?

Vivek said something very similar. Presumably the DOGE boys are government employees.

Yes you will argue of this is what we go through in the private sector. You miss the point. You are just used to being treated like garbage.

If you have been paying attention, companies hate workers more and more. The more money they male the more they hate us and the least they want to pay us. They have been bitc***g and mo***g about the wage growth we got post COVID and the small period where workers slightly had the upper band in their choice of employment. Then they started hating remote workers coming up with all kind of nonsensical studies about it's ineffectiveness.

It's shameful that corporations (corporations are people too remember that line) have managed to turn us into hating ourselves to the point where we turn against each other.

Honestly ask yourself. How has the existence of a fed worker render your life miserable?

Which is why it is incomprehensible that the Democrats decided boys in girls sports and defund the police were more important than an actual labor movement.

The Democrats weren’t pushing any of that. Maybe if you had ever turned off Fox News you’d be less of a gullible imbecile.

No better example of a gullible imbecile than the one you just made of yourself.
How/why do you people continue to remain so blatantly, incredibly naive & willfully ignorant? And then highlight your inability to respond with anything of substance by using a tired Fox News reference to prop you up.

On March 3, 45 of the 47 Democrats that voted, did so in opposition of the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, which would prohibit “school athletic programs from allowing individuals whose biological sex at birth was male to participate in programs that are for biological women or girls”.

Your denial of the Democrats "defund the police" movement is just as laughable.

Speak truth to power.

The powers which held the White House and sometimes congress for 12 of the last 16 years did in fact push “defund the police.”


The evidence supports this basic and obvious truth:

- and yet, just a few posts above this, someone here on DCUM wrote “theDemocrats weren’t pushing any of that.”

I cannot think of a more clear example of gaslighting, disinformation, fake news, etc. - whatever you call it: such blatant liars are right here on DCUM every day.

The D.C. webpage for defunding DC’s Metropolitan Police Department is still up and active:

https://www.defundmpd.org/about

The people working to defund our police are not the MAGAs.

Any random organization can do whatever they want. DC's police numbers actually increased so your point is moot.

Gov employees might have been unaware because Government jobs were never a subject to outsourcing and in-sourcing. You had to be at least a GC holder to get any gov related jobs. Even working for contractors you had to be a US citizen.

Granted this is a chat board, not Zoom, so I have no idea, PP, if you typed this with a straight face, but are you truly unaware of how many fed jobs have been outsourced to largely GOP donor contractors over the last 30 years? Are you too young to know about the Clinton-Gore shaving down of government employees over multiple years (not overnight with a chainsaw)?

If you are going to make sweeping accusations about Feds, then maybe come with the receipts.

So what’s your point? Government employees should suffer the same fate even though they never called you “ stupid, lazy, worthless” and did even know it was happening?

So a Republican congress screwed you over so you support the same happening to others?

Doge wasn’t around in 2000.

And calling them “government employees” is exactly how we got to Musk’s claims that Hiltler didn’t kill people, government employees did.

Honestly ask yourself. How has the existence of a fed worker render your life miserable?

Which is why it is incomprehensible that the Democrats decided boys in girls sports and defund the police were more important than an actual labor movement.

Stop lying, the little baby red hats were the ones that couldn’t stop thinking about little boys and girls and fantasizing about what happens in bathrooms.

NP. The most significant and unified action Congressional Democrats have taken since Trump was inaugurated was to protect the right of boys to play in girls sports. It’s hard to avoid the conclusion that this is the Democrat’s highest priority.

Thank you for a link to a reputable news source, which mere reinforces the obvious; as another poster put it:

“Which is why it is incomprehensible that the Democrats decided boys in girls sports and defund the police were more important than an actual labor movement.”


There are one or more people trying to re-write history here by refuting obvious truths.

But any mature adult with a memory remembers what the democrats have done with their opportunities to lead the administration and, at times, congress (not to mention state leadership).

No one is falling for the revisionist history or gaslighting anymore. I’d argue it’s part of what landed our country where we are now.

I am a Dem, don't support trans women participating in women's sports, but you know what? This is not a crisis. It isn't even a million miles from a crisis.

And you absolute weirdo morons thought this was more important than our democracy. More important than our economy. You suck. You suck. You suck.

Who were the people who said this when you complained? Specifically. Show me where your garden variety everyday federal worker said that. It sure wasn't me. I thought it was shitty. I think most of the current ways of doing things in the private sector are shitty. Are you actually trying to attribute all of that badness as the fault of feds. It is the federal government that works on protections for workers. I would happily support protections for all workers.

So your excuses for why you can't have sympathy for others are...hollow.

It's not a crisis period. Crisis: a time of intense difficulty, trouble, or danger.

The number of transwomen trying to play in women's sports is not a large number. That is mostly an issue about fairness, not life or death. Not intense difficulty, trouble or danger. The idea that all transwomen are a threat to women is not true. This is a "crisis" manufactured by the GOP to win elections. And you fell for it. People obsessed with trans people are weird.

That's exactly it. They don't have any compassion to begin with. Just bitterness and spite. They want others to suffer instead of trying to make things better for all.

Agreed, but the blue cultists cannot accept truth.

Typical MAGA projection. You guys just can't stop, can you. You are so lost. It is truly sad and unfortunately, dangerous for those of us who live in reality.

There are one or more people trying to re-write history here by refuting obvious truths.

But any mature adult with a memory remembers what the democrats have done with their opportunities to lead the administration and, at times, congress (not to mention state leadership).

No one is falling for the revisionist history or gaslighting anymore. I’d argue it’s part of what landed our country where we are now.

I am a Dem, don't support trans women participating in women's sports, but you know what? This is not a crisis. It isn't even a million miles from a crisis.

And you absolute weirdo morons thought this was more important than our democracy. More important than our economy. You suck. You suck. You suck.

NP. You seem to have a lot of trouble differentiating between your opinion and a fact. Men invading women's spaces with Democrats telling flagrant lies to give them cover is not a crisis TO YOU.

It's not a crisis period. Crisis: a time of intense difficulty, trouble, or danger.

The number of transwomen trying to play in women's sports is not a large number. That is mostly an issue about fairness, not life or death. Not intense difficulty, trouble or danger. The idea that all transwomen are a threat to women is not true. This is a "crisis" manufactured by the GOP to win elections. And you fell for it. People obsessed with trans people are weird.

Your unvarnished opinion that men raping and impregnating imprisoned women is no crisis identifies you as an evil, selfish sociopath.

But the president of the USA being a convicted rapist is cool with you? Why should we take you seriously? No democrat actually supports prison rape. You are brainwashed. A cult member.

Since January 1st, 2024, 5700+ companies have announced mass layoffs.

Since January 1st, 2025, 190+ companies have announced mass layoffs.[Last update: January 21, 2025].

So I ask you... for how many of those layoffs did the workers have to endure the POTUS and some megalomaniac billionaire with a chainsaw and a social media company maligning them, calling them lazy and worthless, accusing them wrongfully of committing fraud, etc. etc. though multiple television appearances and social media posts?

I'll wait.

There is no F-in parallel and I'm sick of private sector people pretending they have any F-in clue what this is like.

Just amazing how humans become empathetic when it happens to them.

This has been going on in IT world since 2000. The Bush Immigration Act of 1990 was passed to import millions of cheap foreign workers to keep US wages low and both parties keep expanding H1B and then created OPT out of thin air.

And whenever we complained, we get people pounding that you are stupid, lazy, worthless, why cant you compete with cheap foreign labor. They enjoy the pain of people that have been in a career for 20 years getting replaced with cheaper labor.

Just remember, they are not putting H1Bs in your cubes as you leave. They should be doing that to save money. Then you can feel the joy of watching a 26 year employee get fired and having an H1B in his cube the next week asking in broken English how to connect to the printer.

Maybe read a little folks. Maybe have compassion for US citizens being replaced by overwhelming immigration. Stop focusing on cheap iPhones.

Can you find me something (anything?) that supports the bolded? Especially from government employees?

Gov employees might have been unaware because Government jobs were never a subject to outsourcing and in-sourcing. You had to be at least a GC holder to get any gov related jobs. Even working for contractors you had to be a US citizen.

Granted this is a chat board, not Zoom, so I have no idea, PP, if you typed this with a straight face, but are you truly unaware of how many fed jobs have been outsourced to largely GOP donor contractors over the last 30 years? Are you too young to know about the Clinton-Gore shaving down of government employees over multiple years (not overnight with a chainsaw)?

If you are going to make sweeping accusations about Feds, then maybe come with the receipts.

In order to access an agency network, one must have a PIV card. To get a PIV card, you are fingerprinted and must show I9 documents. You must be a U.S. citizen. There are no foreigners who are legally working as contractors. Please name them if you know of any contractors employing foreign nationals on government contracts. I will report them!
