Sounds like a self-fulfilling prophecy to me: when zero-sum believers are in power, they tend to make the world less positive-sum, and when positive-sum believers are in power, they tend to make the world more positive-sum. (Thankfully, I don't live in a polity with an electorate attracted even to negative-sum believers.)
To patch Nietzsche: negative sum [actions] are exceedingly rare from individuals, but from [corporations] they are de rigueur
It's great that sama believes in positive sum, but even better(?) that he mostly works alone-- AFAIUI he hasn't even explained the Utopic vision to his uh compadres.. Maybe not enough (guided) psilocybe sessions.. (sorry about the inadvertent reference to Silicon Valley

I don't know how to counter that. Maybe help swing-voters see some of the immediate and/or community benefits from legal immigration?
