Superiority complex much? I agree that the decisions are bad, but I wouldn't be so quick to blame it on "normies". Some of the people calling the shots are techies or ex-techies and they're just as stupid as the normies you decry in your logorrhea.

I don't think it's sane to consider yourself more intelligent than the rest of the world. We may be smarter than your average joe (citation needed), but not everyone working in the tech industry is a genius or even smart. We just have an area of expertise, like artists, doctors, plumbers, carpenters... And that is valuable in the modern world. That's already reason enough to be proud about what we do, there's no need for arrogance.
