I think Roy is probably coming from a good place, but postrations from "tech" aren't his to give. It's not just standing institutions taking shots at each other; many of us still struggling to come up don't want to have to cash the dumb culture/norm checks that are being written.
This case is especially bad because people are dying. But I'm tired of feeling like I'm seen as a woman first and a thinker second. I'm tired of people enabling bad behavior & zero-sum thinking because they feel guilty. At some point, we have to start being honest.

I'd *like* to have a real conversation about the role of tech journalism, e.g. where it ought to amplify vs. serve as a check. But right now we're stuck in a death spiral in which writers mint themselves on killing a company or career, and their subjects are starting to fire back

95% of this ends up being self-righteous social media LARPing anyway, but occasionally some stupid throwaway piece ends up bombing a naive writer's career or a hounded founder kills themselves. There's just no good reason for it.
