Not throwing shade at any particular person or group, but programmers need to understand that misinformation and attempts to manufacture consent happen in those communities too. A lot of us fail to recognize cult-like behaviour when we see it as we believe we are beings of pure logic and not susceptible to emotional manipulation.
@grmpyprogrammer The "I'm always logical because I'm good a math" self-delusion is real. And intersects often with the belief that the logical answer is always the right one. Like we should aspire to be vulcans.
