Comment on Balaji Srinivasan calls for tech to "exit democracy" and seize local governments

Comments

The idea, he said, is to do to San Francisco what Musk did to Twitter.

This is such a wonderful, perfect metaphor for who Balaji is and the merit of his ideas.

Please leave SF alone. It’s a city with a ton of problems, but it’d be a whole lot worse as whatever, um, this is.

I honestly genuinely hate that I have to push back against non-tech folks hating on tech people and assuming we’re all like Balaji and Musk. However, the amount of people who support them makes me take a step back and realize that I really might not fit in with the tech community at all. Stuff like this disgusts me.
