I don't know if it's just where I live but a lot of IT workers tend to be right leaning libertarians and want the "freedom" of being able to "negotiate on their terms."

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 days ago

Yeah, and they never actually negotiate anything because of the massive power imbalance. I'd call them useful idiots, if they were actually useful.
