It isn't even slightly racist. It isn't a comparison of morals between the H1B worker and U.S. citizen; the employer simply has more leverage over the H1B worker.

But where is this assumption of a H1B worker causing this coming from? Literally zero indication of this, just a racist strawman.

What a depressing thread this has been.

Uh, immigrants from Europe are also on a H1B as far as I understand it. How do you associate it with racism?

Europeans on h1b have a very easy path to citizenship so it's not really the same.

I am a brown immigrant. I am critiquing America's system.

I'm not seeing any claim that an H1B employee is less moral, only that a person (regardless of visa status) can be coerced into doing something they would rather not do.

Also, there is no inherent racial component to an H1B or other status.

The example of an H1B person seems to have been provided only as a sample to further illustrate the point that "Just quit on principle, rather than implement this thing!" is often not an acceptable action due to other effects.

This whole thread has nods to moral high ground US citizens, versus the immoral scared H1B workers, who are /obviously/ the only ones who would implement such a dark pattern. Mind you we’re discussing an American company, working with American clients.

You seem to be one of those “assume good faith” people, who knows exactly what the others actually mean.

>Mind you we’re discussing an American company, working with American clients.

And everyone in this thread is discussing how that company could be using American laws to pressure workers. This thread is an indictment of an American system, no one is blaming the H1B workers.
