so i work in tech as a tech person but im unsure if im a “tech bro” or just someone who works in tech. its kinda hard to judge because i kinda dont talk to what people probably consider techbros.
anyone got any ideas on a decent description?

tbh it’s just a word that means “techy person I hate”. which tbf, many (but not all) people in tech are highly hatable for similar reasons
to me it means a type of person who became shitty or had pre-existing beliefs about “meritocracy” confirmed by the tech industry boom that followed the 2008 GFC. the sort of people who became rich by investing in the right companies at the right time, or getting into a 6 figure job because they knew a bit of javascript in the days when it was rare, then turning around to say “I made it by getting with the program, therefore capitalism is good actually and maybe you’d have a comfy life too if you spent your time leetcoding instead of protesting for medicare for all and a $15/hr minimum wage”.
