I don't know why you're being downvoted for wanting a more sane immigration system for France.

Whenever limits to US H1Bs a are mentioned that gets full support on HN because it waters down local salaries but when similar systems are proposed for Europe it gets downvoted.

Seems pretty double standard.

Same with India. Indians want the whole world to roll the red carpets for them. At the same time India just recently passed anti-immigration acts.

Its the classic 'Do as I say, not as I do'.

Yep, you got it. Ask them why their zeal for opening borders doesn't extend to their eastern neighbor and you will get a lot of heat very quickly.

India has become seemingly fascist overnight under Mr Modi. Just like Trump, he favours immigration and citizenship policies designed to demonise minority groups

Are you referring to CAA? Then you mistaking my friend. CAA is targeted to prevent illeagle immigration. It also, eases citizenship for people of minority religion. Moreover that law is targeted only towards neighboring countries, specifically towards Pak., Ban., and Afgh.

And 'No' We do not expect red carpets anywhere on the world. Its totally a individual's choice to move abroad or stay. Due to huge population, the figures look high too.

How do you know that the same Indians advocating for more open immigration in the US are the same ones advocating for anti-immigration acts in India?

India isn't one person that holds all these opinions.
