    This just plain isn’t true for the vast majority of engineers. And exceptions occur in any industry. Focus your anger on billionaires and companies rather than your peers.

      I recently started making more money, but until very recently tech workers were not my peers. They’re upper middle class and have very little in common with me. Sure, I’ll side with them against the ownership class, but calling them “peers” is a stretch.

            This is literally us telling you to join and you’re calling people dumbass. Please have some perspective.

            Edit: I just saw your edit to your original post. Consider this my last response. Very childish.

        They are still your peers when it comes to the battle of workers vs employers. Sure, put it in a different context and it may sound wrong.
