Where I'm from and peripheral countries, the industry is riddled with bootcampers and button pushers. My company even has a big bootcamp for reconversions

What are you trying to suggest? That people without the University degree who have been trained for monkey coding do exist? Sure but that's not what I was saying nor does it skew the picture in any significant way.
What I'm trying to convey and you fail to understand is the picture you have in your mind is very much affected by your reality. The fact that you don't see these bootcampers doesn't mean they don't exist.
Not only you don't have a depth of thinking critically, and understanding my point, but you're also unbelievably arrogant.
The only thing I did was to point out that anedoctal data doesnt give you the full picture. Why the insults though?
As I said, your communication style is coming across as arrogant and disrespectful. Instead of asking for more clarification and giving a benefit of a doubt you chose to counterpoint with a trivial example, in which tbh I am hesitant to believe. I say this as someone who has worked across continents and across many different domains. None of the layoffs taking place do not involve laying off "bootcamp" people.

I didn't counterpoint with a trivial example I just pointed out that where I'm from there are some bootcamp people being layed off. If you don't like someone counter pointing you, sorry that's your problem not mine. I was neither disrespectful or arrogant.

And how am I the arrogant one here? You're full of absolutes and certainties and get pisssy when someone argues against your point.
