Who Got Duped? MAGA Activists Worry That Nativism And Tech Oligarchy May Not Go Hand In Hand

Over the past few days, a fight has erupted within the MAGA right over legal immigration, specifically about whether the country should admit more high-skilled immigrants. On the one side, you have opportunistic tech oligarchs like Elon Musk and David Sacks.
The article from MSN discusses the concerns among MAGA (Make America Great Again) activists regarding the alignment of their nativist ideologies with the interests of tech oligarchs. It highlights a growing realization within the MAGA community that the tech industry, often led by figures who might not share their political views, could be at odds with their goals of reducing immigration and promoting American nationalism. The piece explores how tech companies, which benefit from a globalized workforce and often advocate for more open immigration policies to fill high-tech jobs, might not support the restrictive immigration policies favored by MAGA supporters. This has led to a sense of betrayal or confusion among some activists who initially saw tech moguls as allies due to their wealth and influence, but now question whether these tech leaders' economic interests truly align with their political and cultural objectives.
