Irony is, those in need of deprogramming the most are the ones into programming. How is it even possible that people that are supposed to be so intelligent/logical/rational are actually this gullible to state's propaganda that they believe it without a shred of doubt.

Knowing how to solve problems doesn't make you a genius in politics.

See Von Neumann for example, he was a genius in math (this means he was very good in problem solving) but a total idiot in politics.

I know about Van Neumann architecture, but I'm unaware of his politics. Was he the early 20th century equivalent to a tech bro?

He was literally an Anti-Communist.

Von Neumann entered government service primarily because he felt that, if freedom and civilization were to survive, it would have to be because the United States would triumph over totalitarianism from Nazism, Fascism and Soviet Communism.[77] During a Senate committee hearing he described his political ideology as "violently anti-communist, and much more militaristic than the norm". He was quoted in 1950 remarking, "If you say why not bomb [the Soviets] tomorrow, I say, why not today? If you say today at five o'clock, I say why not one o'clock?"[391][392]
