This is a very interesting mix of tone-deaf, disconnected from reality, AI-hype, and naivety that is just hard to wrap ones head around. where do I start.

First, is tech workers the 99% now? Come on, look at the average salary vs national median anywhere in the world. This is just a stupid take.

Second, this sounds like the idea of "Twitter is just a couple of SQL tables and UI pages" level of "I don't understand the depth of software engineering".

Tech workers are in the 99%, unless perhaps in the C-suite, at which point nobody would call them a "tech worker"

At least in the West, where most global SaaS revenue comes from, Tech workers are not 99%. In fact, most of them are well int the top 5-3%. Just look at median salary in your country.

The top 3-5% is part of the 99%. Only the top 1% isn't. You're stealth changing it to the top 95%; don't.

		That is not how it works. 99% is the everyone but top 1%. Tech workers are generally in the top 5%. So they are not the 99% but rather the top 5% so more aligned and part of the 1% they allude to "rebel against".

indeed. the hype is the strongest when the offering is the weakest.
