I wish I could trust that these STEMlord techbros were doing it for the right reasons. Which is to say I wish I could trust that the critical mass of specifically white Amerikan techbros weren't some of the most hideously racist specimens to ever walk the field. Every firm, shop, or what have you I've ever worked in, I've had to hear the most vile shit about H1B workers, the whole "i HaD tO tRaIn My RePlAcMeNt" bullshit that typically leads into a racist screed when said replacement wasn't another white Amerikan man; and honestly?

Ten years into the general field, and I still honestly believe they'd say/do the same shit about me, "movement" or no.
