       The U.S. is the largest economy in the world and has a lot of
       job opportunities, compared to other countries.

       10% of this $10billion shud be used to fund illegal migration of
       Indians into Amriki land so we can steal their land , job and
       tech.

       India is a country of dirty scammers and its government is
       turning a blind eye to this. There should be international
       sanctions against India until this STOPS.

       I dislike this choice of vocabulary. Firstly, it is legal to
       claim asylum:

       Secondly, we are not stealing land as we are not deporting
       anyone, and we are not stealing jobs or tech as no violence is
       initiated either by employers choosing to hire those who will
       work for less pay or experts voluntarily sharing technical
       knowledge.

       I agree with your points but lowkey I wish we actually were
       "deporting" (lebensraum) "White" occupiers and acquiring secret
       enemy technology through espionage. But even then, only
       espionage could be classified as "stealing" since lebensraum is
       merely retaliatory violence for the original theft (Manifest
       Destiny).

       Also, speaking of "scammers", I was reminded about this post:
       [quote author=90sRetroFan link=topic=66.msg11616#msg11616
       date=1646204685]
       I think it depends on the kind of scam. If the scam involves
       appealing to the mark's greed, and the mark falls for it due to
       being unable to resist temptation, then the mark does deserve
       it. Whereas if the scam involves appealing to the mark's
       compassion, and the mark falls for it out of a sincere wish to
       help a good cause, then the mark of course does not deserve it.
       "Does it not occur to them that nobody chooses to be “stupid
       enough to fall for a scam”? Why would they want that to happen
       to themselves?"
       No one wants to fall for a scam, but many people want profit
       unearned through honest labour, hence fall for greed scams which
       apparently offer this to them. Would you agree that X who does
       not want unearned profit deserves better than Y who does? If so,
       then since X will avoid the greed scam that Y will fall for,
       then would you agree that both got what they deserved?
       It is true that Z who (like Y) also wants unearned profit but
       who (unlike Y) is smart enough to see through the greed scam
       will (like X) also not fall for it, but then it is Z who has not
       gotten what they deserve. Comparing X to Z, X is still the
       better person, yet Z by compensating with mere intelligence is
       doing no worse than X is. Does this not seem unfair to you? Or
       comparing Y and Z, both are equally bad people, but Z by
       compensating with mere intelligence is doing better than Y. Does
       this not seem unfair to you?
       We should want a greed scam to exist that both Y and Z fall for,
       leaving only X unscathed. Do you not want this?
       "condoning of scammers"
       If the scammer uses only greed scams and is scamming purely to
       take down Y and Z and all others like them, and then using the
       gains to help X and others like them, the scammer is doing God's
       work. If the scammer is in it for personal gain, but still only
       uses greed scams, at least they are only gaining at the expense
       of other bad people, which makes them harmless. The only
       scammers who are our enemies are those who use compassion scams.

       "I wish we actually were "deporting" (lebensraum) "White"
       occupiers"
       But this would only increase their number in the countries you
       would deport them to.
       "and acquiring secret enemy technology through espionage."
       If doing so would discourage them from further machine
       innovation (realizing that whatever machine they invent will
       soon be possessed by everyone, thus negating the advantage
       associated with possessing it exclusively), then I would support
       this. However, I by now understand the Western mindset well
       enough to predict that they would not be discouraged, but
       instead would only try to develop countermeasures against
       espionage, probably via even more machine innovation! Thus your
       method might end up instead further speeding up machine
       innovation. At the same time, those who acquire a machine even
       albeit through espionage rather than by invention will
       nevertheless still be tempted to improve on it (in order to gain
       an advantage over those who invented the initial model of the
       same machine), thereby also generating selective pressure for
       machinism among its own gene pool.
       It is better to emphasize that machine innovation is initiated
       violence in itself, and retaliate directly by assassinating
       machinists. This may still require using existing machines to
       carry out in practice (and also motivate machine-based
       countermeasures), but at least we would also be exerting
       selective pressure against machinism. If potential machinists
       react by concealing their talent, this would also make it harder
       for pro-innovation institutions to find them, thereby also
       slowing down the rate of machine innovation.
       "So would you say the "scammers" are avenging colonialism?"
       I would need to know the form of the particular scam.

       "But this would only increase their number in the countries you

       I see. The only solution is the Xinjiang solution. Or, if we're
       being more blunt, the Auschwitz solution.
       "I would need to know the form of the particular scam."
       It varies. Some of them appeal to greed (e.g. telemarketing).
       But others appeal to fear (e.g. IRS tax scams). But I would say
       both avenge colonialism.

       How do these scams target colonizers only? What if the scammers
       are colonizers themselves? I am not sure how you are arriving at
       your conclusion.

       > Scammers are from India (victim of colonialism).
       > Scammers target people in Western countries (mostly elderly
       people, which means mostly "Whites")
       > Overall, we see a net transfer of "White" wealth to
       "non-Whites".
       Is this not avenging colonialism?

       "Scammers target people in Western countries (mostly elderly
       people, which means mostly "Whites")"
       There is too much uncertainty here. Some elderly people
       voluntarily refrained from reproducing. These do not deserve to
       be targeted by IRS tax scams at least. I also worry that those
       most likely to fall for IRS tax scams would be left-leaning
       types, whereas the "sovereign citizens":
  HTML https://trueleft.createaforum.com/true-left-vs-right/plebian-hubris/msg18403/#msg18403
       would be least likely to fall for them. (If you want to scam
       MAGA money, you should just claim to be collecting donations for
       Trump!)
