Here’s the dirty little secret: when foreign companies move in, they don’t hire Georgians, they import foreign labor.
We’re being replaced in our own communities.
That’s not job creation. That’s a sellout.
We need leaders who are willing to put Georgians FIRST!

The toniest neighbourhoods of Harare are still filled with white people, and South Africa’s billionaires list, still overwhelmingly white, has only swelled under Black-majority rule. The white share of the population may have declined, thanks mainly to higher Black birth rates. But their overall prosperity has only risen. And as one economic study after another tells us, the net effect of immigrants on the recipient economy is to create more jobs than they take. The immigrants in Western societies are the heroes sustaining our economic prosperity, not the villains. |
| We’re being replaced in our own communities. | rejected | https://www.communitypsychology.com/replacement-theory/ | According to the National Immigration Forum (2021), the replacement theory posits that when states welcome non-white immigrants through immigration policies, they are participating in a plot designed to undermine or “replace” the political power and culture of White people living in Western countries. This theory and iterations of it have been and continue to be pushed forward by anti-immigrant groups, those that uphold white supremacy, and others. Iterations include thoughts of migrant invasion that must be halted before White America is taken down, voter replacement, and other xenophobic conspiracies. |
| We’re being replaced in our own communities. | rejected | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Replacement_conspiracy_theory | The Great Replacement (French: grand remplacement), also known as replacement theory or great replacement theory,[1][2][3] is a debunked white nationalist[4] far-right conspiracy theory[3][5][6][7] espoused by French author Renaud Camus. The original theory states that, with the complicity or cooperation of 'replacist' elites,[a][5][8] the ethnic French and white European populations at large are being demographically and culturally replaced by non-white peoples—especially from Muslim-majority countries—through mass migration, demographic growth and a drop in the birth rate of white Europeans.[5][9][10] Since then, similar claims have been advanced in other national contexts, notably in the United States.[11] Mainstream scholars have dismissed these claims of a conspiracy of 'replacist' elites as rooted in a misunderstanding of demographic statistics and premised upon an unscientific, racist worldview.[12][13][14]. |

🤖 Conclusion [25/100]: The statement claims that when foreign companies move to Georgia, they do not hire Georgians but import foreign labor, and this leads to local communities being "replaced" rather than experiencing job creation. The evidence shows this is mostly inaccurate:
- For the hiring claim, multiple reputable sources (including Georgia business sites and labor law updates) clarify that while some foreign workers fill specialty roles due to a lack of qualified local talent, foreign companies do hire significant numbers of local workers. There are even state-level regulations encouraging or requiring hiring local workers where possible.
- The "replacement" narrative is rooted in a widely debunked conspiracy theory called the Great Replacement, which mainstream scholars reject as unscientific and racist.
- The "that's not job creation" claim misconstrues economic effects: evidence suggests foreign investment and immigration tend to add jobs overall, not reduce them, and the sellout accusation is not supported by economic data.
Together, while a sliver of truth exists (that some foreign workers are indeed brought in), the overall framing is highly misleading and mostly false.
