Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

I was about to post this one! have an archive link

it’s fucking incredible how mask-off this techfash shit has gotten, and it’s absolutely no coincidence that the CEO of y combinator is doing this shit so loud while the orange site keeps platforming bigotry. the San Francisco these fuckheads want looks a lot like a real life counterpart to the worst bits of hacker news

when I get the chance I’m going to pull out some quotes to analyze later, because this article is very nice as an overview of techfash methods (though it’s the New Republic so of course they don’t go as far as to call a spade a spade)
