This is objectively not true. Women played a role. They still play a role. They didn't rule anything. It was the Wild West, and it was ruled by anyone who was willing to take a chance and succeed.

This rewriting of history, to make it look like men conspired against women to seize control of technology, is weird as hell. If you view the world this way, you're probably not a very easy person to deal with.

For having ruled the computer world, I'm noticing the same few examples repeated over and over.

I note the casual acceptance of the slur "bro".

Rewrite the headline: "When did teaching become Harpytopia".
