I've tried to figure out a way to say what you've said in this post since I've gotten here, and every time, it's sounded like an indictment on the poor.
Brilliant post, and it's criminal that an area so full of brilliant people can be so detached from the most actual problems facing the world, when they're right on the proverbial doorstep.
- misc_closet 14y agoThe lack of compassion, perspective, and empathy in this thread alone is enough to make any idealistic computer geek want to burn down Silicon Valley. It's fucking shameful that nerds--educated and wealthy people who should know better--have these cruel, regressive attitudes toward the underprivileged. Shame shame shame. Anyone who isn't ashamed of San Francisco's treatment of the homeless--who isn't ashamed of many of the attitudes displayed in this HN thread--is a horrible monster of a person. A person severely deficient in empathy.
