The scary part is the handful of computer touchers I maintained contact with after they got whisked away into surveillance or even military-industrial empires present themselves as superficially happy about their work. Not just on LinkedIn; they sort of present themselves like a LinkedIn account.
For those reading that don’t know what that is like, just imagine a typical HackerNews community circlejerk but lived and spoken.
It’s especially fucked how they buy into the “cool hacker rebel with a hoodie” aesthetic like a fucking youtube music compilation and make six figures and wear lanyards while making society a little more oppressive.
They probably are truly happy working on that dumb ass empire
Without confirmed exception the ones I know are all “GALACTIC EMPIRE DID NOTHING WRONG” contrarians that also enthusiastically talked about their “zombie apocalypse survival plans”
