It’s very clear for someone who grew up in a Global South country seeing the US playing exactly this game on Europe right now.
Imagine a country spending several tens of thousands of dollars if not more to cultivate your youth talent, subsidizing all the cost of education, giving out scholarships for top students to study overseas in prestigious Western universities, only for them to choose to stay in the West so that they can earn a salary with a purchasing power several times over what they could have earned in their home country.
When Western imperialism destroys the economy of Global South countries, they also get to poach the best and brightest talents from those countries simply because of how much better the living standards and the strength of currency in the West. Many such cases. The same is being done to Europe right now.
Oh yeah the US has been doing this for centuries at this point. I’m just surprised the Europeans didn’t realize they were getting played, given they invented colonialism. It’s a real “leopards for eating people’s faces party now eat faces of people who let them out of the cage.”
