the "left" broadly advocated for open access community owned gigabit fiber networks while the right coddled monopoly access to the detriment of progress and affordability for four decades
is there a technology that "the left" is excited about?

Makes me think of the recent Women in Tech conference that got swamped by men.
Gross!

I hope things in our industry change for the better in the future. I will not allow anyone to feel this way again.

Yes, there is a long time racist metaphor for this style of staffing.
There is a management trend being discussed in tech circles that looks like
• little to no hiring of entry level workers
• turning managers into super ICs (individual contributors)
• smaller teams
• everyone heavily using AI tools
I’m curious to see which companies actually follow through.

I honestly think this was a wayyyy undertheorized aspect of the Obama coalition—the addition of "technology" to the Democratic party appeal allowed a multiracial, cross-class, multi-faith group to say similar words about "progress" while meaning totally different things
for a minute there a certain popular and universally positive view of "technology" really was a kind of secular religion that held the vestiges of an "American mainstream" together, but the titans on top sold off the goose that lays golden eggs and now they want to believe AI adoption is the problem

Lots of good points being made
One thing that's important to realize now is that, even in a scenario where Dems sweep to a crushing trifecta in 2028, Republicans will use their control of the courts to attempt to continue, as much as they can, to run executive agencies in exile, with DHS/ICE under Biden as the model
