the whole tech vs press twitter dynamic is just if you took the fallacy where you think everyone who agrees w you does so for diverse & principled reasons and everyone who disagrees does so monolithically and for extrinsic motivations and turned it into a perpetual motion machine
the press lacks technical expertise & operates under attention economy incentive structures which leads to flaws in coverage and it's exhausting to watch a bunch of self-described problem solvers who could be trying to fix this spend all their time yelling about haters instead
idk if this equivalency works for me when tech explicitly advertises itself as able to disrupt and reform flawed institutions for the better, and when tech ppl are going around saying journalism is easy anyone can do it. no journalists are saying social networks are easy
tbf the way they could fix it is by giving part of their fortunes to a massive journalism nonprofit, I would not want to see a tech guy trying to deal with journalistic ethics
it's so obvious none of them want to touch an actually hard problem like. i found this week's tech-side criticism of vox fascinating, a ton of shit thrown at them for being Garbage Tech Press but no mention of they were funded by accel & khosla and 3/6 board members are vcs
