It's the same sort of identitarian nonsense, but isn't it explicitly counter to DEI?
I think similar to DEI in that the hiring ruleset considers elements that are not indicative to actual skills and qualifications.
Anti-h1b = America first even if it results in worse productivity
DEI = some sort of marginalized group first which will more often than not result in worse productivity
Hiring the best for the purpose of optimizing output and productivity is counter to each of the above imo

That's what I mean: DEI arbitrarily elevates members of marginalized groups, while America First arbitrarily elevates members of a privileged group.

Got it and agreed there. Was more so saying those are more similar to each other than a meritocracy even if they are on opposite sides of the spectrum of who they elevate

Yeah, I enjoy when people call them the "Woke Right". I think that's fitting.

Yep I was more aligned with the right in the last 8 years and I can't abide the woke left, but I've got my eye on the woke right too. Some are starting to exhibit a lot of the same tribalistic behaviors observed on the left
