I feel like the article is missing something. It felt like all it really was was a complaining bullet point article and then | |
at the end a quick blurp about going out to states where there are the have's and the have nots. I agree that Silicon Valley | |
has an empathy vacuum because I see it here in the Denver tech industry. It seems like the have's feel like they are doing | |
something by posting on soicial networks and talking about how things are unfair for some. But that's all there is. Just posting | |
and talking. No real action that would make a difference. It's like donating to NPR and thinking your helping society and your | |
community or protesting in a "blue" street for a few days wearing sweats. Actions need to be freqent and concrete to be truely | |
effective. By that I mean, getting involved in politics at a local and federal level. Hitting the pavement and getting your hands | |
more then dirty. Getting them all scuffed and cut. So when you go home at night you feel the work it takes. I don't know how | |
realistic it would be for anyone to say move to a red state and try to change things but that is what I think it takes. The silicon | |
valley "types" need to open HQ's in states so more of the mind set spread out. But now I'm just rambling... I'm going back to work. |
