CHAPTER

Cultural Shift to the Right in Tech Politics

This chapter explores the significant political shift among influential billionaires and tech leaders in the U.S. and Canada, as many transition their support from traditional Democratic affiliations to the Republican Party. The discussion includes examples of corporate leaders expressing controversial views, particularly regarding diversity initiatives and government policies, leading to a realignment of political dynamics within the tech industry. Notably, the chapter highlights the implications of these changes for governance, corporate responsibility, and the broader tech community's response to rising 'woke' culture.
