Anil DashI wanna say something to people who work in tech-related jobs in America: this is still a field where most people hate the rise of fascism and want to stop it. I know the media & amplification of the tycoons makes it seem like that’s the whole industry. But it’s not. And we still have power.
Badtux the Snarky Penguin@anildash I hate to say it, but most of the tech bros I work with in Silicon Valley are total douchbags who view women as not-human cum receptacles and gay/trans people as not-human, and view compassion and kindness as weakness.

Jon A. Cruz@nelrafa103 @badtux @anildash self selection. If you want to chase money and power, that's where to go.
@nelrafa103 @anildash Engineers have always been conservative. They avoid liberal arts in college as much as they're allowed, and hyperfocus on becoming expert in one single thing and then think that because they're an expert on Kubernetes and GoLang that makes them an expert on, say, homelessness. Reading from a diverse set of influences to learn how people who aren't engineers think is dismissed as a waste of time. #techbro #fail
