Google lays off hundreds of 'Core' employees, moves some positions to India and Mexico

I think it's bad form to call everyone who disagrees with offshored work a racist. Moving the entry level jobs away from the US has created this situation and that stereotype. You are denying the very real problem by saying it's a racist/xenophobic stereotype. Like all stereotypes, there's roots in reality.

The technology industry there has been growing since the US started giving away it's entry level tech jobs and the training that comes with it. The enormous scamming industry is a direct result of the rejects from the call centers. Those call center rejects see their friends and neighbors succeed but can't hack it in that environment but they too want their pieces of pie. They are useless to M$ (and the like) but even though they failed there, they picked up skills that make them valuable to criminals.

Same shit happens in the US, it's how people who suck at their jobs generally continue to get hired. Nothing wrong with discussion about it just because it's happening to another country.

Maybe we should stop letting companies become oligopolies through antitrust allowing them to dictate whole global markets and have more money than the governments of many entire nations.

Nations don't have skin color, people do.

Please go accuse somebody more deserving of racism.

I feel like it's more ethnocentric than racist, which is a bit less bad. Some developers have had negative experiences with offshore talent. I've personally had mixed experiences, and some of that comes down to communication issues and experience issues. Sometimes you get an offshore developer who is really skilled, but generally the very skilled developers get their work visa and come to the US.

You also get absolutely garbage developers in the states, but of course nobody ever mentions that. Lol

India and Indians, indicates a nation and a nationality, not an ethnicity. Therefore not racist at all.
