      Most programmers are completely dedicated towards hating everyone else. Other programmers, laymen, whatever. If they HAVE to interact with another person it’s even worse.

      And it’s not a case of them legitimately just disliking human interaction- That would make sense, be somewhat understandable, and even be outright valid in the case of neurodivergent people dealing with neurotypical bullshit. No, they hate interacting with other people simply because they think they’re smarter and better than everyone else.

      programmer is a job. i think your take is kind of reductive. if there are reactionary tendencies with programmers, it is because they are products of the capitalist base and superstructure of our society, but to suggest that they are all this way because they are simply inherently flawed and that it has nothing to do with neurodivegence or the system we live in is kind of reactionary in my opinion. I think other posters have laid out better why there are reactionary tendencies with programmers, for example, the proximity of tech to the MIC, or the tendency of programmers to grow up in a bourgeois milieu. But even that is a historical explanation since programmers are increasingly downwardly mobile, nonwhite, and third world, since the imperial core has been outsourcing programming, and since there is a tendency of job markets to become oversaturated and under paid.
