All that American military spending bankrolled Silicon Valley.

Now suddenly Silicon Valley thinks it's better than the US military that bore it?

Well, for the past 20 years, the military has been preoccupied with bombing brown people halfway around the world. I'd say simply by virtue of not doing that, Silicon Valley is better, yes.

Maybe there's more than one part of the military, and the resilient internal communications network part is different from the wedding-bombing part.
