> Is there a good derisive term for them?
I've heard a few, but they don't seem to stick: for a while, Social Justice Warrior was in vogue, and lately, I'm seeing a bunch of variants of woke, which I imagine are spoken italicized to signify vitriol and/or contempt.
Edit: I had forgotten cuck - though that's broader, and would be used as a derisive to all persona non grata not just the nerds.
- stirfish 5y agoCuck is a little more specific. A cuckold is someone who spends resources raising someone else's offspring. It's the other end of the derisive term "welfare queen".
- serial_dev 5y agoThe sjw, woke, c*ck are general labels, not tech specific (and some are too explicit). I laughed at the soydev in the sibling comment.
