> The CPT program is about working during a course of study, before graduation, and isn't an immigration program, so what is the relevance of your comment?

The whole reason Indians are in this mess is because they commit fraud to obtain internships at fake companies to obtain H1B, and have a baby ASAP to maximize chance for a green card.

If you want to improve the lives of overseas Indians, perhaps you should first acknowledge the problem.

Until then, better start looking at the UAE Golden Visa.

But I heard even that is becoming stricter in late-2026. Time is ticking.

> International students are the biggest money-spinners for universities

That is exactly the problem.

Stanford University owns 7 private jets for “administrative use”. The fuck?

Perhaps cut the free money from international students, then universities can finally focus on producing research, or god forbid, educating students.

> This comment misrepresents what the cancelled programs does.

It prevents international students from internships at companies while still enrolled in university.

Unless you have a different definition of the word “student visa”?

Perhaps you meant “F-1 green card” visa?

> That's not the same as simply expanding rights, unless you count other people being 'offended' in the same category as someone being physically assaulted or killed.

Yes, they are the same category.

In US$10,000 property damage, nobody is physically harmed.

Here’s another example, expanded rights:

Anyone holding a 401k, IRA, or pension can purchase single family homes and apartments inside the account, and pay zero capital gains tax and zero rental income tax.

We expanded rights!

Take a guess what this does to the homeless population.

> That decision was expanding rights, not removing them.

Theft of personal property under US$10,000 is no longer a crime.

Survival of the fittest, as nature intended.

Expanded rights, therefore good.

> > Plenty of engineers, born in India/China and working in Silicon Valley, are openly anti-immigration

> This is not X or blind. You created a new account just to post drivel?

Tell me you don’t work at a tech company, without telling me you don’t work at a tech company

> Birthright citizenship is a constitutional right in the US same as freedom of speech, religion, the press, and the right to sue the government.

And we can amend constitutional rights. It most definitely will happen in our lifetimes.

> Most of us are only citizens because someone up the chain was born under this rule.

And?

You think the world in 2026 is exactly the same as in 1776?

What about slavery? Good idea in 1776 therefore good idea in 2026?

> But will remain anonymous and are okay with the collateral damage.

Have you worked at a tech company in 2026?

Plenty of engineers, born in India/China and working in Silicon Valley, are openly anti-immigration. And I also support them since I agree with them.

Pull up the ladder once you’ve made it.

Nothing new.

> And my wife's other nationality (Taiwan) also permits foreign spouses to live there after some straightforward paperwork.

Not really.

Taiwan doesn’t like India either.

There’s a reason out of the 1.1 million immigrants/foreigners in Taiwan, only 6,000 are from India.
