It’s usually ‘Why don’t you just take Uber/Lyft?’

I have been on many a Tinder date with various tech bros and perhaps the most unifying characteristic is that they do not take Muni. They seem absolutely baffled when I reveal that I did, indeed, arrive by bus.

Yep, this guy is totally fapping it to Ayn Rand.

Where the fuck does this guy think he is? Disneyland? Seriously, “I want my parents to have a great experience”? No one owes you that, you fucking special snowflake fuckhead. To use the advice of his own hipster kind, if you don’t like it, MOVE THE FUCK OUT.

*covers mouth in abject horror* Oh no, not THE BUS!

“free market”, he is totes libertarian.

Omg! A state school!?? How did he ever survive? SMDH.

The really depressing part is he probably isn’t. Tech is full of people who really, deeply care about the plight of the downtrodden as long as they stay the hell out of the nice real estate.

It is fascinating to me, observing how people sincerely confuse ‘unsafe’ with ‘horrified.’ Comfortable and well-off people constantly tell me that the Civic Center and Tenderloin neighborhoods are so terribly unsafe for them to be in because of the sort of displays of human suffering this guy describes. I mean, it is…

No, but the problem with entitlement, when it’s them they actually need it, everyone else is lazy. This holds true of welfare, any kinda of child support/assistance, unemployment, workers comp, help from friends/family, divorce, being arrested, having an addiction, abortion, getting fired, it’s only valid to them if…

A guy also named Justin Keller who also lives in the Bay Area is getting hit up on twitter. He took it in stride and wrote an excellent response.

“I know people are frustrated about gentrification happening in the city, but the reality is, we live in a free market society. The wealthy working people have earned their right to live in the city. They went out, got an education, work hard, and earned it.”

This clown. Did he seriously think he wrote some earth-shattering letter that was going to open the eyes of the mayor to something he’d never realized before? Gawd. Must be exhausting carrying around all that self-grandeur!

This dude should start a campaign to get all of these indesirables boots, because then they could go on to do some BOOTSTRAPPING!

Disrupt homelessness!

I know people are frustrated about gentrification happening in the city, but the reality is, we live in a free market society. The wealthy working people have earned their right to live in the city.

So much rage. I lived in the bay area for 15 years and I ended up in tech after college. San Francisco was always expensive and full of homeless people, but once those fucktards started making money they really screwed the local property values. I was born in SoCal and what really drives the chronically homeless…

While the entire piece is unsettling and frustrating, this sentence really stuck out to me:

I know I’m not supposed to wish bad things to happen to people, but whenever I see stuff like this or people from my conservative rural town all over Facebook with their “welfare queen” beliefs, I just sort of wish that at some point they’ll lose their job/fall on hard times and realize what absolute fuckwits they had…
