Tangential note, but one thing I hate about techbros online is how whenever someone talks about how they’re struggling to get a job, immediately everyone blames “diversity hires” as if they’re only hiring black people and women, yet if you look at the numbers the tech industry is like 60% white and 90% male

Yeah, I work in tech and it's bullshit. Not diversity hires; the outrage. 9/10 times the "diversity hires" are just as competent and efficient as any white guy and often they are very good. There's a lot of "I will prove myself" attitude there. White guys are mad they can't coast by anymore. The jig is up.
