“Karp’s message is loud and clear: My technology will take political capital away from one of your greatest enemies—liberal women with degrees—and give one of your favorite demographics to patronize—working-class men—more political power to transfer to you.”

These fucking women-hating weirdo assholes.

I used to think my nemesis was the finance bro. My mistake. It's the Tech Bro. Specifically, this kind.

@spocko thank you.

Hearing the words spoken is much more meaningful. The post by @DeliaChristina no longer has my boost.

Because Disqus can be problematic, here's a plain text copy of your transcription:

I knew nothing about Alex Karp until today. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Karp> is enlightening.

@grahamperrin Thank you SO MUCH FOR THE PLAIN TEXT TRANSCRIPTION!
Question, how does the pastebin set up work? I could have done that for the whole transcript if I knew how it works, how long it lasts & how links.
I wanted to put the transcription in the Alt but it was 218 characters too long.

@spocko I don’t think those comments make any more sense with the context than before. The dude is just wrong about how technology intersects with social dynamics. It just doesn’t work the way he shows he is thinking it works. Nothing works that way.
in reply to The Janx Devil

@janxdevil I agree. When I posted that I was thinking about how people with money & power who have a certain world view will push to make it come true.
in reply to Spocko

@spocko Sure. And that’s bad. No question. But at least we can avoid succumbing to the mistaken belief that they can ever succeed. They’re just wrong. Stupid, bigoted and wrong, but they’re not going to succeed in doing the impossible.

@mojala Agreed. I posted this image of a nuclear explosion mushroom cloud back in 2016 & I wrote

"Do we have to wait until Trump launches a nuke until we fix this timeline?"

After Biden was elected I thought we had stopped that timeline.

But we re-elected Trump so I recreated the image.
