      I think the point of this post is how they are all doing stereotypically nerdy things, and then they are into Twitter

        >field stereotypically composed of argumentative assholes
        >members congregate amongst argumentative assholes

        This is as surprising as finding my old human sexuality professor on tumblr. I mean, I haven’t, but I wouldn’t be surprised.

          Another unfortunate fact is that there are a lot of right wing people in IT. That’s something I’ve learned in national conferences. I always hang out in places like this so I had no idea how bad it was, but at least 50% of the people I’ve met at IT conferences were right leaning. There’s only 1 on my team. 2 if you count the libertarian.

            As is the rest of society. There’s nothing about IT that would make it more likely to attract left wing folks. There is that for FOSS specifically, but a huge part of the IT sector only consumes FOSS products without ever giving back.
