The atmosphere post-2024 election election feels different. Over the past year, several prominent figures and institutions have made changes. Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook, expressed the need to celebrate "masculine energy." The NFL removed the phrase "End Racism" from its end zone celebrations. Major corporations backed away from their diversity commitments.

Numerous individuals and groups, including Russell Brand, Elon Musk, Susie Wiles, Harmeet Dhillon, and many others, have also left their positions. These actions suggest a shift in how these entities view their relationship with the Trump administration. Nvidia, a once favored company of Trump, has seen CEO Jensen Huang resign amid multiple alleged affairs and connections with a suspected Chinese spy.

This resignation, along with Nvidia's announced changes in data center policies, demonstrates the company's shift away from aligning itself with the Trump administration. This post-election vibe shift appears to be rooted in a more realistic understanding of American democracy and its checks and balances.
