There’s something in the water. The air. The food. It’s lead. Microplastics. Carbon monoxide. “Forever Chemicals.” And void knows what else.
It’s poisoning the brains of people everywhere.

The quotes in this article were some of the weirdest fucking things I’ve ever read. Is there something in the water in SF?

I’ve read history, I know what pure unadulterated humanity is like.
Getting our bodies clean (while important) won’t cleanse our poisoned minds.

Oh for certain. Humanity is a pox upon this planet. Hopefully mother Earth solves the problem.

Tech bros are gross caricatures of real people. Imagine 35 years of social ineptitude plus billions of dollars.
The good news is they don’t have any real power, they just have power fantasies.

There’s always people like this in various industries.
What they are more than anything is self-promoters under the guise of ideological groupthink.
They say things that their audience and network want to hear with a hyperbole veneer.
I remember one of these types in my industry who drove me crazy. He was clearly completely full of shit, but the majority of my audience didn’t know enough to know he was full of shit, and was too well connected to out as being full of shit without blowback.
The good news is that they have such terrible ideas that they are chronically failures even if they personally fail upwards to the frustration of every critical thinking individual around them.

Privilege and money. When you are that rich you aren’t really connected to people and humanity as a whole. No one tells you that what you’re proposing is fucking insane and awful. Notice most of San Franciscoans aren’t calling for stupid shit; they’re just struggling to survive.
