I don’t see it. “Tech bros” are a subset of people in tech. I don’t feel lumped with them. It’s like saying “reckless drives” is offensive because it lumps normal drivers with assholes.
If anything it’s offensive to women. Elizabeth Holmes was a typical “tech bro”. Not only men are assholes in tech. It’s a discriminatory term.

A “bro” is a mindset in this sense, not a biological designation.
Women can be “bros”.
