By popular demand, I turned today's tweets into a Medium post: In Response to Marc Andreessen’s Techno Optimist Manifesto https://t.co/ZOwNPe53jU

This week we're talking consensual non-monogamy on the Denizen podcast, so much to cover this is part one of two.

Moments of strain surface our work: individually, familially, and collectively. I re-visited this paper on white supremacy culture (better titled dominance culture IMO) and it was eye opening to see how attributes are coming to the fore in this moment.

also apologies to @pmarca for misspelling his name in my Tweets earlier, which cannot be edited. The blog post reflects the correct spelling.

@asim_fayaz @pmarca @a16z Didn't mean it as a take down... tho it's so extreme I couldn't help but take the gloves off a bit... irony is most of what he says about tech's historical impact and potential is true, he just fails to recognize that enmeshed with capitalism it does the opposite of his claims

[Jenny Stefanotti @developingjen]

I used to respect @pmarca, and even had hopes that
@a16z would become a VC firm that could bend Silicon Valley towards a less extractive, more impactful version of itself. Then I read this and lost all hope and respect.

@pmarca finally @pmarca pls don't include Buckminster Fuller on your list of techno-optimistsm as you describe it so embedded in capitalism. We need to divorce our views of what tech can do (so much) from its enmeshment with capitalism (which is ripping apart society at its seams).

[Jenny Stefanotti @developingjen]

@pmarca the whole section about enemies... oof. just the whole perspective on enemies / war / fighting / othering reflects a worldview of superiority, us vs. them, a massive part of what is deeply wrong w the world right now (see conflict in the middle east)
