We're always fed the line that the tech elite are the alpha men/women, especially by business media. But then when they hit economic reality, are found to be investing in garbage like Web3, or don't have maximum economic leverage in workplace negotiations, what do they do?

They whine. On the bird site, and to business media. Definitely very alpha.

It smacks of impotence. If they had the power, why couldn't they just fix the situation instead of whining about it? I bet they would, if they could, but they can't.

And they're humans, just like us. Not as special as we've been told.
