I don’t think anyone really hates technology.
What almost everyone hates, but may struggle to identify or articulate, is the rapacious, capitalist, consumerist, colonialist, patriarchal hierarchy by which our technology is informed.

@paddyduke@mastodon.social @tante@tldr.nettime.org I would not say that I hate tech... I like well build things, which seem to be increasingly rare these days... What I hate is the implied force to deliver more and faster and ignore every possible side-effect, which is imho why most companies as systems of capitalism love it so much. The whole "more, more faster!!!"-mindset ia imho a deathcult and the assumption, that one in IT needs to appreciate this is something I really find infuriating.
