A MAGA civil war has emerged, pitting Indian-Americans against far-right Groypers over immigration, diversity, and identity. Once marginal in politics, Indian Americans have gained prominence, with Trump courting their support through events like “Howdy Modi†and Diwali diplomacy. This contrasts with Groypers, a white nationalist collective, who oppose figures like tech entrepreneur Sriram Krishnan, appointed by Trump as AI Policy Advisor. The conflict exposes America’s immigration paradox: Groypers cling to exclusionary ideals, while Indian-Americans embody hard work and innovation. Beyond memes and rhetoric, the battle symbolizes a deeper struggle over America’s future and the MAGA movement’s identity.
