“why doesn’t tech trust the media?” um because the media is openly campaigning for the eradication of tech? is this a trick question?

wild to see tech journalists openly endorsing regional, anti-tech legislative positions like “no on 22,” which will effectively eradicate ride sharing in california. is this not some kind of ethical violation?

People need to recognize many stories are little more than editorials propagating those opinions, though.

Yeah, this is new. When I was a tech journo, the rule was that you don’t tell people where to invest or how to vote.

i know journalists covering sf government who refuse to express any kind of opinion on the politicians they’re covering, even privately, and journalists covering tech who do the same. definitely jarring to see on my timeline.

I feel conflicted on 22. Voting yes is clearly the correct position for all involved. But I also want to see what happens if it doesn't pass and if Californians will stop electing the people that created the issue to begin with.

I'm sure their justification is that it is unethical to stay silent.

A lot of well-meaning people who vote “no” will be shocked by the outcome. If ridesharing is eradicated in California, the shock might act as smelling salts for some anti-tech people.
