HN doesn't generally vibe with class consciousness because their high income makes them far more aligned with the "capitalist class" just like how a small business owner is much more aligned with the worker class despite being workers and business owners respectively, since it turns out that people do not value their theoretical "class" since it has no relevance to their life.

No. They want to believe that, but the reality is that even in this little bubble (with a median income multiple times that of general population's median), anyone that works for a living is far more likely to experience homelessness than they are to join economic elites. Sure, you're able to be comfortable because unlike most of the economy you are compensated well, but you should still have worker solidarity (and humility).

Let me put it another way by making it less personal to tech: Hollywood celebrities, wildly successful people that basically everyone knows their names and faces, are still workers. Million dollar contracts BUT only if they play ball with the system and don't get themselves blacklisted for being too political or being too inconvenient saying no too many times to staring in soulless Disney slop, or whatever. They can retire early on that kind of money, get to a kind of stable non-participant status, sure, they can place pressure on their industry and on society to change to some degree, but they'll never call the shots because they don't write the checks.
