You don't think similar proportions of people in other fields would also like diverse culture?

Nope. Tech workers trend more liberal, more well-travelled and so on (I'm sure you can find negative ways to frame the differences as well). The cultural differences are real.

Rather, tech workers in San Francisco trend more liberal. This is because the city generally trends liberal; it's not specific to tech workers. Outside of that bubble, tech workers are the same as anyone else.

The largest single employer of tech workers in the world is probably the US military, and those tech workers definitely don't trend liberal.

I'm sure they might; I don't know. I'm talking about tech people.
