There are lot of fringe political folks on HN that would prefer everyone shuts up and works. Or that want to turn everything into a moral crisis.

But to them I say, at least we can vote where we want to whittle our lives away, right? Choose the people and products we work with and on.

You're free to work at "do your work" Coinbase if you want. Or "everyone is now a vegan" WeWork.

You can choose to build spy tech, ad pipes, weapons systems. It's all up to you.

People complaining about culture (or defending it) might be making different choices than you.
