Finally, someone - in this case Matthew Iglesias, has taken on the #TechBro “technology optimists” who naively believe that we can ‘tech’, ‘build’, and ‘birth’ out way out of our current problem spaces. They’re wrong and it’s rubbish of course. Impulsive, immature naïveté by folks who SHOULD know better. This kind of insane, happy optimism in the face of overpopulation, climate change, a falling birthrate, war and polarization is just arrogant folly. They argue all technology is inherently good, uh-huh. Here’s Iglesia’s worthy takedown https://www.slowboring.com?utm_source=navbar&utm_medium=web&r=3icfk#technolgy#TechnologyOptimism#TechOptimism#Naivete#SiliconValley
