    I don’t understand what them being tech people has anything to do with them being assholes

    The tweet is just poking fun at the fact that the average tech bro is way more likely to be douchey

    Can you stop doing the "akschually not ALL tech people" thing?

      Not interested in a flame war but I would describe that as an inaccurate characterization of what I was saying. all I said is you’re mad at the wrong people

        How am I mad at the wrong people? "Wealthy" people who do this suck and are assholes

        You can actually be mad at the ruling class AND people who are working class if they're shitty. You don't get a pass on being an unreasonably selfish and greedy person just because you're a laborer lmao

          This silicon valley techbro would be a class traitor during the revolution, and on some level, they know it, but are too cowardly to admit it. That's why they're pushing this #notalltechbros thing so hard.

            Class traitors are good. I can't think of a successful revolution that wasn't full of them.

            Why would they be "too cowardly to admit" being a good thing? Why are we so hostile to the same good thing that's featured prominently in every successful revolution? This is leaning towards ultraleftism.

              Because they're a working class person who will side with the bourgeoisie. They aren't petit bourgeoisie, they use their own labour. Class traitors can go in either direction. Working class people can be convinced to work against their own best interests.

              🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

              Everything is ultra-leftism to you, either that, or "stuff that won't build a mass-movement" when it's against the crackers. I don't think you have any ground to label what's good and bad to revolution anymore. I for one, am not putting my faith in fairweather fence-sitters when the last time we saw one of any prominence was a hundred years ago.
