Source: Wonkette

Can we just get this out of the way: techbro brodude tech guy bros are the worst of the worst. They’re always talking about how they’re going to “disrupt” things when really all they are doing is ordering lunch from Seamless or something. But they are at their very super duper exxxxtreme worst when they decide to take their thought leadering disruption making brains and run for office. Exhibit eleventy: “tech evangelist” Ro Khanna, who is primarying incumbent Democratic Representative Mike Honda in, of course, Silicon Valley.

... It goes without saying, but we will say it anyway, that tech people are swooning over this guy.

... Oh, but guess who also too likes this guy? Did you guess “libertarians who are pretty much not even all that secret Republicans”? Give yourself a cookie!

... We might even dislike this guy more than that bankster dude, Neel Kashkari, that is running against Jerry Brown in the governor’s race because at least Kashkari is actually running as a Republican, while Khanna is cloaking himself in Cool Dude Techbro Startup Talk and will just get in there and go libertarian all over your face, California. Wise up now before it is too late.
