So you'd suggest staying and fighting against this inside the company? If they truly love the company and it deserves this, you might be right.

edit: what bothers me is that at least by some senior staff members these employees are already considered second-class citizens as otherwise this initiative wouldn't even be discussed, and I wonder how comfortable it will be to continue working with these people now.

by staying you fight it already, better be passive - not being insane is already a lot

I have to disagree. Passively staying does not change anything; the fact that they work for this company has not prevented this initiative.

When a wast majority thinks in a way against you, fighting them you will inevitably make mistakes and be triggered to do dumb stuff. Crowd think can make people believe that Chinese and Russians are some sort of zombies. If you stay around and show that you are not a zombie to be eliminated, this is already a lot. I know how it sounds, but don't underestimate crowd dynamics.
