Summary

Elon Musk faced backlash from his followers on X after advocating for importing “super talented engineers” to address a shortage in the U.S. tech industry.

Musk likened hiring top foreign talent to building a championship sports team and argues that there is a shortage of talented and motivated American engineers.

Critics argued there’s sufficient U.S. talent being overlooked or underpaid, with some pointing to widespread tech layoffs.

Musk dismissed claims of low wages or training gaps, maintaining a need for exceptional engineering talent to advance innovation.

    I literally just said all of that, but I already said all of that. Just with more context and explanation.

    Well, I’m glad you get what I’m saying, repeating it isn’t helping anyone.

    Nothing is worse, however, then you excusing the shitty actions I’ve described. That just makes you complicit.
