There are some very established tech players whose pin their reputations on “being the good guy”, but tacitly support all sorts of horrific far right ideologies. They’re paid by and are closely associated with right wing power players. How are their followers so ignorant?

If Oz wasn’t horribly corrupt they wouldn’t be working with him. So sorry hear about your aneurysm! That is a pretty scary thing to have lived through. I had a minor stroke in my early 20’s. It’s frightening to think of it still.
