Re:Silicon Valley Struggles to Add Conservatives to Its Ranks on Friday December 01, 2017 @04:12PM (#15827538)
While you (and others) may believe conservatives are fundamentally 'bad' people and Silicon Valley (and the world) would simply be a better place without them, this is short-sighted (amongst other things). Conservatives and liberals obviously see the world differently. One ways that manifests itself is that conservatives are typically more detail oriented and liberals are typically more creative. As Dr. Jordan B Peterson phrases it: "Each of those different temperamental types needs the other type so economically speaking, for example, we need liberals to start businesses, and we need conservatives to run them." https://vid.me/3Dik

Seems like Silicon Valley would very much suffer in the long term from a lack of multiple viewpoints. Is this not what the call for diversity aims to achieve?

We should be careful not to dehumanize our political opponents. That way lies violence.
