The dirty little secret of SFBA tech workers is (IMHO) that they're not really liberal. They like to pretend to be and pay lip service to various social causes.

The dirty little secret of SFBA tech workers is (IMHO) that they're not really liberal. They like to pretend to be and pay lip service to various social causes. They'll vote for the legalization of gay marriage (Prop 8) and recreational cannabis use (Prop 64) and will write checks to the ACLU and pet shelters. But they'll also vote to protect their investments, being the significant amounts they have tied up in Bay Area housing. And if the campus workers, nurses and teachers have to drive 4 hours a day to get to work, so be it.
