    You’re surprised that the alpha techbros of techbrodom have a lot of people involved that have hot takes on geopolitics?

    It’s just that the last year or two has made everyone a partisan because everyone has doubled-down on being divisive and killed any social norms around not being a jackass.

      If you think kernel maintainers are ‘techbros’ then you dont really understand that term

          if you live in the bay area, youd understand who works in tech, and whose a tech bro, very easily.

            Living and working in silicon valley for 20 years and then moving to Austin and then Chicago has show me the reality of how much of a bubble that the Bay Area is.

            Nothing translates and tech bro there has a VERY different meaning outside of it.
