Musk, Zuckerberg and Bezos have openly supported and in some cases even donated heavily to Democratic candidates in the past and had quite a liberal-leaning outlook.

Now Musk is the biggest donor to Trump's campaign, Zuckerberg has allegedly plans to project a more libertarian outlook and Bezos blocked Harris's endorsement in Washington Post.

The only Big-Shot who openly supported Harris was the old-guard Bill Gates with his major donation

Even my company which is a major Fortune 500 MNC in Cloud domain and used to be "Social Justice champions" until a year back suddenly started defunding our DEI programs, and reduced all the public engagement around those topics.

Although all of this happened before the results but the fact that they took such risky bets as opposed to maintaining the long-held status quo indicates that they would have been quite confident of the incoming paradigm shift in the political climate. For example - Someone like Zuck would be the first person to get the insight that young men (a very important consumer demographic for the success of his ventures) are increasingly leaning right.

Are these just isolated incidents, or is BigTech really just quite flexibly bending its image according to the current political climate?

PS :- I know the election results are quite emotionally heavy for a lot of the folks in US but please keep the discussion limited to the topic itself and not to the wider politics surrounding the polls.

Has the BigTech leadership started to align itself more to the Right/Republicans?
