Some of the very worst of the worst liberal takes, apologia for fascist shit, and of course cryptobro grifts and even Tesla worship keep coming from there. It’s fucked.

I don’t want to say all programmers or tech workers are like that, but I don’t like what I’ve seen so far from people with a .programming suffix on their names. disgost

    I imagine that a lot of geeks and nerds have seen society’s shift from mockery and disdain to embracing their culture. And are upset that the world is able to comfortably enjoy their stuff without paying their dues. Or at least, that’s the perception of it.

    Most previously marginalized subcultures like punks get mad when their subculture becomes mainstream and commodified. The difference is that punks just call people poseurs while gamers become fascist gamergators.
