Some, by working for companies (big tech) that have given little resistance to trump but rather funded his ball room, etc. Sadly, everyone quitting those companies would not really be a reasonable solution either, though there are more possible actions than that

"Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, spent more than $290 million supporting Donald Trump and his MAGA allies on the campaign trail last year." [1]

"Exclusive: How Palantir's Alex Karp went full MAGA" [2]

Look at All In Podcast - tech VCs - they are all in support of this administration.
