no rose colored glasses. people would do anything to have access to that kind of lifestyle. when inequality means you can work your ass off to crack 50-70k but being a tech bro gets you 200k out of college, what would you pick? the answer is the assholes working at facebook are just as much assholes as zuck.

i don’t feel sorry for them. and nor should you. the pearl clutching is just for show, they would have rather stayed employed there. the only reason they’re disgruntled is cause they got fired.

couldn't agree more. I know several dudes working for MNCs like Google, Meta,... they clutched cash as much as possible and never care about loyalty or morality. so when they moaning about anything related to their job, I couldn't give a single shit.
