A number of those images are from the TV show Silicon Valley, a show satirizing the industry.
Similar search in Google images also tend to match various stereotype (basketball player, hotel housekeeping, etc). Google will generally reflect what's on the Internet.
- actually_a_dog 5y agoRight, and the fact that there is a popular TV show depicting such a stereotype is some amount of evidence that the original claim that "tech bro" and "white man" are wrongly conflated is wrong. Search "tech bro" -tv -hbo and you get similar results: https://www.google.com/search?q=%22tech+bro%22+-tv+-hbo&tbm=isch&ved=2ahUKEwiWm77F1f71AhXQGjQIHSF8CqAQ2-cCegQIABAA&oq=%22tech+bro%22+-tv+-hbo&gs_lcp=CgNpbWcQA1C4CFjcEGCPFGgAcAB4AIABswGIAZAGkgEDMS41mAEAoAEBqgELZ3dzLXdpei1pbWfAAQE&sclient=img&ei=VgQKYpaYGdC10PEPofipgAo&bih=581&biw=1151 https://www.google.com/search?q=%22tech+bro%22+-tv+-hbo&tbm=... If anything, especially on the first page, the images get a little whiter when you add -tv -hbo to the search string.
- bdcravens 5y agoSure, but the bigger point is that Google is merely showing what the Internet reflects, which in general reflects society. Like when you search for "hotel housekeeper" or something positive like "CEO".
