Klare Leseempfehlung, die eine sehr interessante Perspektive auf die aktuelle Entwicklung eröffnet. Woher kommt das Geld, welches den neoliberalen Tech Bros des Silicon Valley so viel Einflussnahme ermöglicht? Wie konnte "die Cloud" so viel Kapital binden, und was bedeutet das für die klassische Wirtschaft und die damit verbundenen Gesellschaften?

May this era of Elon Musk, Sam Bankman Fried, Elizabeth Holmes, etc. teach us the stupidity of worshiping self appointed industry Messiahs, cult of personality business models, and the notion that Silicon Valley and Stanford are the ones (hell according to the mythology the only ones) who will drive us into a better future. Frankly, more often than not they drive us to dystopias rather than a better future for anyone other than themselves. #FTX #ElonMusk #SiliconValley #techbros #TechBrosShouldNotExist #BillionairesShouldNotExist

Looks like Silicon Valley hustle culture isn't only destroying the lives of everyone else no the planet but the leader's own lives as well. How about we tell the techbro and VC "gods" that foist this shit on everyone to go fuck themselves? #TechBro #TechCulture #TechBrosShouldNotExist #SiliconValley

Commenting on the WSJ article titled "Magic Mushrooms. LSD. Ketamine. The Drugs That Power Silicon Valley" David Frum writes: "It takes a very special brain to think, "Polio vaccine? Bad. Measles vaccine? Worse. Covid vaccine? Poison. But steroids? Good! Ketamine? Better! LSD? Best!"

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Techbro disruptor CEO says all the experts, regulations on products like theirs, etc. is just about stopping progress and they know all and will get it done better, faster, and cheaper. The end result is putting people's lives at risk for no good reason. Stop worshipping these motherfuckers. Stop taking what they say as gospel truth. Relegate them to the same social status of carnival barkers selling you admission to a flea circus. At least with the flea circus hawker you were only out the equivalent money of buying a cup of coffee at a restaurant. I feel very sorry for the people that weren't told the details of how intentionally hacked together this vehicle was before putting their lives in this delusional CEO's hands. #TechBrosShouldNotExist #BillionairesShouldNotExist #VultureCapitalism #OceanGate
