    I’ve also been concerned about negative outcomes for people based on the videos I’ve heard about and the one I saw posted before, but that’s what makes them so brave. The more they do it and the more such videos are normalized, the less harsh companies can be in retaliation.

    Management being assholes is not as much a generational thing (at least, not as much as it seems) as the nature of what corporations expect of managers. The few amazing managers who somehow remain human while doing their job, who are good mentors, etc., are outliers.

      I just don’t get what the end game is for this. Let’s say all of gen Z quits tomorrow over this. All of tech will simply move to Brazil, Eastern Europe, and India.

      Since there’s really no social safety net, and we don’t give a fuck about the homeless…they do what exactly?

      For example…the fortune 50 I worked at for a while has enough money to stop selling all their products and still be solvent for about a century at their current spend.

      If they faced a general strike, they can hold out for generations. How long can the average American hold out for?

      This general audience of this site feels like 15-25…they don’t realize the kind of power the big players have.
