@jonah this is definitely a hard time to feel hopeful about tech. My silver linings perspective is that we're collectively getting a lot of new clarity about what we disagree with, and what world we'd prefer to inhabit instead. Some of the "evils" are new, but many have been here a long time, and we've just gotten better at seeing them with a critical eye. Maybe this depressing moment is a necessary intermediate step towards making a better tech world for ourselves - and everyone.
