They understand that they're being fucked over by those in power, but are completely blind to who's doing it the worst and worship them instead.

See, you say this, but (with all due respect, as I get the perspective), you might vehemently disagree with me asserting that "boycotting AI is playing right into tech bro's hands."

So yes I agree with the irony, but I also feel like nuance and sub-arguments (from my perspective) get drowned out, too. Not every single Democrat politician is an oligarch, the US has done some good abroad, and using ML as a FOSS tool you own and host is not necessarily bad.
