    “Stargate” is already taken for another science fiction. You’ll have to pick another name.

    Snapshot from the TV series Stargate SG-1

    It’s also a testament to Altman’s dealmaking prowess: a progressive San Francisco tech leader walked into an administration that opposed everything he publicly stood for, and within days, he secured a crown.

    Bullshit. Absolute steaming mountains of bullshit.

    These techbros don’t stand for anything. They’re a bunch of objectivist libertarian assholes who enjoy the aesthetics of being perceived as progressive because it’s trendy in the kind of social spaces they want to inhabit.

    This isn’t about “dealmaking skills”, it’s about Trump being a giant baby who will do anything for anyone who kisses his ass, and Altman not giving a flying fuck about Trump being a fascist because sucking up to him makes him money.

      Why would anything socially progressive organize on Facebook? Most normal people I know have abandoned that platform, let alone anyone privacy-minded or anti-oligarch.
