"Techies" who relish their own political ignorance are not making laws that regulate the lives and jobs of other citizens.

Wow. I thought we ran the world, through our devices, code, networks etc.

In fact, the politicians are mostly concerned about reigning US in, right? That means we have the real power.

So, as many important scientists in history have mentioned, isn't it irresponsible of us to remain politically ignorant?
