I lived and worked in SV for several years. Basically people don’t see anything they do as wrong and have no concept of shame.

It’s a combination of learned obedience to authority and greed.

You just take a bunch of people who made all A’s in school by doing whatever they were told by authority figures, give them new authority figures who give them new “homework” (monetize suicidal ideation), and the money to buy a car they can post on Insta and you’ve got a BigTech workforce.

To be honest it’s pathetic to watch up close.
