      Feels like tech backlash 2.0 is starting up, a qualitatively different line of attack/critique that features a different kind of critic launching a different variety of hostile attack 🤔 This isn't the Morozov/Roose type attacks.

      Can't put my finger on it, but it isn't the old "arrogant aspie techbros trying to make an app for everything, who need to study humanities and learn to kiss my ass."

      Venkatesh Rao Retweeted Venkatesh Rao

      One legible strain is bad faith deployment of climate concerns as an anti-billionaire-ressentiment weapon. Another is regulation attempts now growing up. But the thing I'm sensing is more like illegible background gaslighting beyond those things.https://twitter.com/vgr/status/1414378763400355843 …

      Thing I'm sensing has more of a retreat/boycott/cozyweb feel, and pointedly trying to find re-enchantment in things that seem secure from being app-ified and shoved under the API. A kind of going-boneless passive resistance. Almost Gandhian. Politically weaponized waldenponding
