Silicon Valley? Perhaps they should take a little walk around San Francisco and see just what they are promoting. How can smart people be so dumb.
“How can smart people be so dumb”
Unfortunately common sense is generally inversely related to level of higher education
It’s wrong to call them dumb. Their worldview is different - it considers religion to be a menace and venerates the gospel of neo-Marxism as intoned by Foucault and Adorno and Deleuze. They abhor individualism and exalt group identity politics. This is all tangential to their expertise in technology and business. They are smart and know exactly what they want.
