"Un-American" - Netizens target Elon Musk and Joe Rogan as they let feelings known about the H-1B visa program 

Elon Musk and Joe Rogan have become popular figures in the H-1B visa debate.

Earlier this week, Musk sparked a massive debate about H-1B visas, which allow non-Americans to gain temporary citizenship by working specialty jobs. Musk supports the usage of H-1Bs because he utilized a similar program for his companies.

Musk has been called out relentlessly on X for his viewpoint, including the following people saying:

"The truth @elonmusk @joerogan maybe your boy rogue can investigate and the truth will set you free! H1B visas are un-American and littered with fraud."

"@elonmusk @VivekGRamaswamy, good read here. As much as we (we=most of America) respect you, y’all are missing the big picture on the H1B visa argument. Imported software engineers do not make America great. Tech does not make America great. Talk to again to Joe Rogan, he knows."

Joe Rogan has not released a statement on the debate. With that said, several people called for Rogan to discuss the topic on his podcast and potentially voice his disagreement with Elon Musk's opinion:

"I hope @joerogan brings on someone like @cernovich to talk about the H-1B program. Rogan has praised Elon and Vivek continuously, and they’ve completely lost MAGA overnight. It’s a wild crash out and I’m hoping JRE doesn’t turn into an “uncritical of Elon” zone. We’ve already lost Alex."

"I’ve publicly called upon Elon and hosts like Joe Rogan to facilitate this badly-needed national conversation, which appears to have fallen upon deaf and increasingly angry ears."

Elon Musk plans to "go to war" for H-1B debate

The H-1B visa debate gained nationwide attention after someone on X questioned Elon Musk's viewpoint on "optimizing something that shouldn't exist." Musk responded with the following message that has received backlash:

"The reason I’m in America along with so many critical people who built SpaceX, Tesla and hundreds of other companies that made America strong is because of H1B. Take a big step back and F*CK YOURSELF in the face. I will go to war on this issue the likes of which you cannot possibly comprehend."

On Jan. 20, 2025, Donald Trump will be inaugurated as the 47th U.S. President. Trump recently released a statement supporting Elon Musk's argument that H-1Bs is a positive program for North America. Notably, Musk was a significant supporter of Trump during the intense election year.
