I think it's great that people on our side are making a stink about things we don't like. I hope it's a trend that grows yuge and if it causes division so be it.
Frankly, MAGA needs to be divided from the same-old same-old blind trust and cult of personalities that got us here. If not it won't be long until Trump is gone and everything goes right back to the deep state, and worse because MAGA won't even be a threat if we go along to get along now.
Debate is great, dissenting opinion is excellent. I personally feel there is room for improvement in our current American culture. That doesn't mean I support importing people for all of those positions. We are a great nation with great people but in many ways we have gotten off course (imo). We can call for improvement in education, a refocus of priorities and a call to greatness and still accept people from other countries to participate in the American dream.
Do other countries open their doors and let Americans in to participate in their dreams (war doesn't count)?
How much have they sent to us for hurricane relief? Flood relief? Are they selling us super cheap oil until our reserves are full again so we can use it to protect their sh!t? Don't try to sell me on this "other countries" baloney. We owe them nothing.
I say America and Americans first and no compromise.
I said "people" from other countries, not other countries. I'm not trying to sell anyone anything, I'm sharing an opinion. I agree Americans and America first, I would think most everyone on this sight would agree with that sentiment. If you are a good person from another country who believes in America and American values and you can contribute to America in a positive way WITHOUT pushing qualified Americans aside (like some DEI bullshit), I fail to see the issue.
To be clear, I completely disagree with the way in which Vivek and Elon have presented their opinions. Every effort should be made to place Americans in American jobs. We are not a sports team recruiting players, we are a great nation who should uplift it's own citizens before anyone else. But I don't support completely closed borders and zero immigration.

no more soft power and global hegemony!
These are reactions not well thought out objections. There is a difference. If they had thought it through the vitriol wouldnt be so intense.
