I'd make a crack about how well it's going down south, but the destruction is the point.

Fucking tech bros are the worst

[–] Peanutbjelly@sopuli.xyz 13 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Tech guy here. Really wish we could specify the corpo nepobabies from the normal tech enthusiasts. from my personal perspective, the two groups have long been at war. With musk types bluffing their way to a world where everyone believes they are actually capable, rather than just failing upwards like every nepobaby. The best techies are usually doing underappreciated open source work because the world needs it. Anti-intellectualism is not a win against the anti education cult. Just my two cents.

Yeah that's well put, a tech enthusiast to me is far from a tech bro though.

It's weird for a long time I always thought that silicon valley was a liberals wet dream. Now in the last year or so, I've come to realize that is not the case. They are all about control.

The owners are chasing money. The workers are fairly progressive

If you're just wondering who to avoid doing business with:

Float Financial Ada Globalive Shopify

[–] tiefling@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 4 months ago

Wasn't Shopify gonna leave for NY?

Probably sponsored by that cumtard Musk and twatski Nazi Lutke who told us to bend over for America.

In my most Canadian way possible: Fuck every single “Canadian” that wants to sell out to the disgusting fascist yanks.

Kindly go outside and play hide and go fuck yourselves.

Cause it’s going so well so far right?

If the aim is to destroy the ability of government to function, eliminate all constraints on corporate exploitation of the workforce and the environment, and hand all former government services to for-profit companies, it is going well. Musk is already awarding his companies contracts to replace the functions of the government departments he's shutting down.

[–] Reannlegge@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 months ago

But he said he would step away if there was any conflict, you have to believe him. /s

Most of Musk’s money is tied to Tesla, the swaticars are not doing that good and the stock is free falling. He needs to make money some other way now.

I am sorry I could not read the whole article, please tell me at the end they say just joking!

Personally i like the idea of the doge department but obviously its being used for corruption. if we could actually hold spending accountable that would be great
