Skin tone obviously.
This can be read in two different ways. It’s pretty clear, I hope, it’s the good way (that you say that’s the reason for them, not that it’s the obvious reason that you agree with). And the reply with Data too, wouldn’t be surprised if these replies were on a right wing community. Imagine if you were just saying what you think and everyone was upvoting you because they read it as “this is the reason for them”.
The immigrants aren’t taking our jobs. They’re doing the work “we” don’t want to do. Agriculture. Janitorial. Construction. Stuff like that.
And they’re not making computers and games more expensive.

computers get cheaper with time, people get more expensive
I think we currently live in a time where computers do not get cheaper with time. My hoster recently increased price. Also I had a look at a replacement SSD and oh boy did those get expensive… Last time I upgraded my laptop, I just maxed out the RAM with 32GB plus a 2TB SDD. And I might be mistaken with the numbers, but I think I paid a total of what’s half a SSD today 👀
sure but that’s only until the gold rush peters out.
Hmmh. I guess we’ll find out. According to the AI industry, they’re just getting started… I’m not really subscribed to that kind of thinking… But there’s various predictions from the bubble going to burst and we’ll get all the datacenter capactiy for cheap. To AI will continue on an exponential path and it’ll get way worse with it’s insatiable demand for energy and datacenters.
Poor gamers, though. First they had the cryptomining bros, then the scalpers, now the AI industry… There’s only ever a short time to buy GPUs before the next boom makes them overpriced again. And this might not be the last hype.
the gamers know what they did.
on a more serious note the industry as a whole is haemorrhaging money at an insane pace. the ed zitron report from earlier in the week showed that openais burn rate is like 8x their revenue and they show no sign of course-correcting, and the others seem to be doing the same thing. nvidia is the only profitable party and their profit is like a fifth of what the sector is losing.
Ai can’t stab you or cut your throats
Both. Both are bad.
Immigrants aren’t taking jobs. The ruling class leverages their immense power in society to push down wages of the entire working class and instills fear of speaking out through exploitation of the desperation of immigrants.
If immigrants are employed then isn’t that a job someone else could be doing?
There’s enough work to be done in this country that everyone should have the ability to place a job if they are willing and able. However capitalism demands artificial scarcity to maintain itself, so capitalists artificially restrict the amount of available positions.
What’s “this country”?
“Jobs” are not a finite resource. That’s just the broken window fallacy with a dash of bigotry.
Or from a macro-economic view, since immigrants are also consumers, studies typically show that immigrants increase aggregate demand for jobs more than they increase aggregate supply.
Do the jobs that are taken by immigrants create jobs in the same field that the person who lost the job can be employed in? Because it creating a job in some other unrelated field doesn’t really help the original person. Nor does the line for someone going up necessarily.
Jobs are productive. Every person that is employed grows the economy, so every job done by an immigrant creates another job.
AI has yet to be productive. Right now it’s just destroying jobs. Nothing is created, except maybe data center construction jobs.
Jobs are productive. Every person that is employed grows the economy, so every job done by an immigrant creates another job.
That sounds dubious to me. Is there a study or something to back up the idea of every immigrant job creating another job?
