Nothing like seeing huge comment chains devolve into communist-bashing and anti-Lemmy rhetoric because the devs are scary Marxists

    Techbros are insanely overwhelmed with Anglo white man majority, and so their political beliefs also align that way. Anglo white woman, in the name of feminism, will not solve anything either.

    What will solve this problem is decentralisation of tech industry to countries other than Anglosphere, where other countries have significant dominance.

    West is increasingly appointing Indians as CEOs either to solve their problems, or use Indian puppets to counteract the global image of white man dominance, and to counteract the influence of China and Russia having more impartial tech industry without the need to fake PR.

    I am constantly seeing Tiktok bashing in West, and my conspiratorial take is that Facebook is telling US media to do it so that they can capitalise on Tiktok market, the way they attempted (and failed) with Instagram Reels. Apple also did it with Huawei, so it might not be surprising. USA wants to keep the white man techbro dominance by destroying foreign country competitors, and Europe is happy with it.

      Techbros be like: What’s more authoritarian than a code of conduct?
