Some thoughts and questions here.<p>Should we in the tech industry feel obligated to spend energy on these social movements? Are we wrong and selfish to not?<p>Honestly, I&#x27;d rather not. I&#x27;d rather get technical things done, and let policy makers and influencers focus on those issues. If you&#x27;re in on something with me, great AWESOME, I honestly don&#x27;t care who you are. Things like race and gender don&#x27;t matter to me as long as you can get work done. However, I do understand that being able to get work done in this industry is stemmed from a privileged advantage. -- Yes that sucks and is unfair, but how do we as a technical industry even change that when we need to focus on getting work done?
