Mostly true, but techs can over-estimate how much choice many people have. My ex wife was horribly bullied at work, and lived with it because she was early-career in an academic field she loved but where jobs were scarce. She won out through dogged and dignified persistence, and became respected by all (including the erstwhile bullies).

She's a highly intelligent and credentialled professional and unless she wanted to throw away years of work, did not have a realistic option not to work with tyrants. Millions less gifted and lucky than her have less choice still. Life's also too short to go homeless or hungry for long.
