Everything is political. If Trump is putting trade restrictions on China that’s politics. Also there’s not much tech news at the moment so I’m not sure why you would have such a high treshold in off-season.
That’s debatable, but it might be in your life. However, not everything political is tech.
And my reason for having high standards is that lowering them would expose me to too much garbage.
The reason I’m subscribed here, and not on lemmy.world!technology, is that that place will allow anything that gets clicks - even if it’s only tangentially related to actual tech.
Hence, the amount of rants about Musk is through the roof.
I had higher hopes for this place, but it does require moderation. Your post, with all due respect, is just political circlejerk clickbait.
Ignore or block the post then. You’re free to not look. If you want something moderated to your specific standards only then go create it. Nothing is stopping you, but you’re trying to stop others. So stop it.
The genocide in Gaza is the biggest event of our (life)time which will likely define this whole decade geopolitically. There is a severe lack of news on the technology side about it.
There’s a lot of strife inside the tech world from people who work for both big multinationals and startups, over their company’s continued dealing with Israel, and especially so with their armed forces. It’s not well covered, because tech journalism is - frankly very corporate friendly - because it relies on access to sources, and so is very subject to access journalism that self-censors and chills dissent or criticism.
Someone who joined on to work on population mapping for vaccine coverage planning, or a cloud service engineer, may strongly object to their work being contorted and sold off to enable and supercharge a genocide.

How is this ´the technology side of it´, besides that the comment is made by someone that works in tech?

if this post upset you that much that you felt the need to backseat mod, then you’re a zionazi, it’s that simple.
however, a post about the inner workings of figma, a technology company, is tech.
