@hacks4pancakes @gangrif I apologize in advance, I am not a tech person and so my opinion is an outsider's view, but: Do these fanboys think every CEO of every company that makes a product or service that they like, actually, personally, writes the software or connects the wires or creates and designs new ideas and inventions, and is the means of production? The conflation is not only stupid, it's dangerous authoritarian-enabling.It's like the putrid fallacy of The Great Man theory of history, that erased the complexity and cooperation of thousands of anonymous people necessary for the success of every endeavor. It's why democracy is now at great risk, because we forgot it's not single individuals who protect or change societies, it is the effort of millions of unnamed unrecognized individuals who do the hard work.
