Do you support sustainability, social responsibility, tech ethics, or trust and safety? Congratulations, you’re an enemy of progress. That’s according to the venture capitalist Marc Andreessen.

There’s not a worker in the world who will vote away their own job.

Unchecked control of the workers for industry will harm us all. We don’t need socialism we need strong unions.

No it doesn’t, historically people have literally burned down factories and assaulted those who were replacing their jobs.

There’s not a factory in the world with any significant number of workers that find some new innovation that makes all those workers obsolete where the workers go “oh yeah, let’s do that”

There are absolutely zero incentives for a worker too to support such a thing. If you think they’re going to somehow magically vote against their own interest and act in favor of the common good no matter the situation…

Well that’s very socialist thinking from you.

Literally every Red state in the US is a a group of people voting away their own jobs.
