There are a lot of leftist communities, there are a lot of science communities, but not many leftist hacker/scientist/engineering communities because those types of communities are often libertarian and believe in tech saviourism bullshit

like i’m pro bitcoin, pro taking bitcoins from libertarians and selling it back to them. never buy, always sell.
I used the word hacker, but honestly i hate the word hacker:
"If you know me at all
You know my very negative associations with the word #hacker
