    Morris Dees and $PLC certified deplorable, David North, on whether
    Susie Wiles sees signs in her surveys of legacy American proles that
    they are eager for their sons and daughters to grow up to navigate
    South Asian tribal office politics in American corporations: <URL:https://cis.org/North/Status-Quo-Prevails-Yet-Again-Two-H1B-Cases>
    | The chances are that Cisco management, at the CEO level, is not
    | engaged in Subcontinent-style Hindu-on-Hindu discrimination. The
    | chances are good, however, that as in so much of high-tech,
    | personnel matters are handled by Hindu executives who may very well,
    | in this instance, be treating the lower-caste workers badly.
    |
    | Now called "Dalits" rather than Untouchables, these workers often
    | have names that identify them as such, making them vulnerable to
    | discrimination by those in the higher castes. That the most advanced
    | of U.S. corporations -- the high-tech ones -- should be associated
    | with these medieval practices is ironic, to say the least.

    Does Wiles worry that Ken Griffin and Lachlan Murdoch will allow Ron
    DeSantis to invite the likes of Mike Emmons onto their campaign stump
    and thus beat Donald Trump to the high ground on the National Question?
