When I first spoke out about the genocide, I was one of the few voices in tech, and it came at a cost.
I faced sabotage especially from the VC class: lies, leaks, threats, and blocked investments.
It was painful, but I never once regretted standing up for the children in Gaza.
Today, the tide in tech has shifted. The truth is undeniable.
If you’ve been holding back, now is the time to speak out and call out anyone supporting or celebrating genocide. It won’t cost you much—in fact, it will earn you respect, and more importantly a clear conscious. Plus, alienating those who will hate you for speaking is a feature, not a bug.

your job isn’t to make things look good
your job is to control perception
design is manipulation; of attention, emotion, behavior
shiny things are just the bait
