You still need computer knowledge to do that
From my experience, people with computer knowledge are usually more progressive
Calling someone dumb because they cant do what is easy for you to do is dumb
I don't struggle too hard to empathize with Nazis that have to rent off Liberal spaces.
I think its really an age thing a bit in IT. Where I am (large talcom), a lot of the old timers are pretty Conservative, but also, they don't seem to know jack about any of the new sort of systems and tech we are using to upgrade the network. Thats all for the younger folks, who are also much more profressive.
Let me tell you about a time long ago, when it was harder to get on the internet and no one had smartphones and the internet was populated by users who were a whole lot more intelligent and reasonable than what we see today.
I was there. I can verify that the abnormal insanity we see in our politics today began around the same time everyone started walking around with the internet in their hands.
