Link Post - I'm an American software developer and the "broligarchs" don't speak for me
Sometimes you just want to be understood.
Here I am, a software developer in the year 2025. I look around at "tech" in the news and in culture and I don’t like what I see. Something has gone really, really wrong with the Big Tech "bros" and I cannot keep silent about it any longer. Because the broligarchs do not represent me at all.[…] If all I can accomplish here is to be understood, that’s enough. I can, after all, only speak for myself. But I have a feeling I’m not alone. I have a feeling that there are a lot of other people in the tech world who do not want to be thought of as the cold-blooded instruments of mad kings bent on destroying everything in order to remake the world as a dystopian techno-state.
This is an excellent read, even if you’re not a developer.
