You know how in the debate, the moderators posed this, “what if tech company A” wants to come or leave or etc.
Am I the only one in NYC who doesn’t want the big tech companies? If Facebook or Google were going to leave NYC, I would be all for it. All the big corporate tech bros make this place worse, not better- they enshittify everything they touch.
Small tech, yes, big tech- or fucking “AI company with too much money doing some dotcom-like stupid product” - no.
Also - one edit - Facebook being in the old K-Mart building, somehow makes sense - except K-Mart was better. Somehow saw Phillip Glass there many a time.
I used to go to Venice Beach and admire the semi-quaint and weird vibes the area employed. Since Big Tech moved right next door, I noticed a decreased in diversity and an increase of tech bros ruining the scene. It no longer has the old vibes I once knew, in addition to everything in the area increased in price due to their presence.
American’s fascination with Oligarchs and celebrities is absurd.
I am tech worker and I try to make my city better, volunteer in a dog shelter, try to use public transport when possible (San Jose doesn’t have the best public transport)
I think the “big corporate tech bros” was meant to refer to the bigwigs. “Big” modifying “corporate tech bros”, not “big” modifying only “corporate”. English needs to normalize parenthesis for intra-phrase grouping.

Also all the tech company employees could just work from anywhere who cares where they are located

Don’t confuse tech workers to the top earners

You saw Philip Glass at K-Mart many times? Story time?
