Photos circulating social media purporting to show Twitter employees before and after Musk. I don’t know how realistic the picture is (they may be completely different departments), but it certainly conveys the two mentalities well.
The marketing girls create a nice safe (read: highly censored) environment, the young men write the computer programs and make it work. There we see the contrast of male and female brains. In between the pretty girls, however, could be mixed in a few nasty creatures like extreme metro-sexuals or beings with unclear gender identities. And among the young men, some boy-type girl (which in turn is usually very sexy). It’s not fair to effeminate men, but nature just doesn’t fulfill our ideas of justice.
But it’s also interesting in terms of freedom. Young men – programmers, they could be craftsmen or engineering technologists in other circumstances. It is typical of their environment that everybody does their own work, and everybody basically doesn’t care how the others think, what their opinions are, or what they do in their spare time. Even when they form a gang, that’s the way it is. They respect each other as experts or at least as hardworking people. That’s the environment of real work.
…they were all crying together over the plight of the poor jihadists, then they were sleepless over the burning planet, and this year they hate the Russians together.
In the photo on the left, members of the collective have to constantly socialize, reassure, communicate and confide. Which is accompanied by constant intrigue of each against each. No one has the right to stand aside. No one has the right to have their own opinion. Each has an obligation to be flooded with the same emotions. A few years ago they were all crying together over the plight of the poor jihadists, then they were sleepless over the burning planet, and this year they hate the Russians together. Every difference threatens everyone. Crowd emotion, crowd action.
This is certainly not to dispute that these women have many wonderful qualities and that I can’t imagine life without them.
The trouble with our civilization is that the former have financial and political power. Even if there were men in suits, they’d be guys with the same mentality as the girls in the picture.
When will the world be better? When the latter refuse to continue to live in symbiosis with the former and stand against them.
