It feels like every time I find a podcast about security/networking/technology the hosts end up saying some pretty off-color stuff, or I look them up and they also host right wing podcasts. Are there any that are more leftist, hosted by LGBT peeps, or at least not actively bigoted ?
yeah–the “techno-libertarians”, as i’ve personally taken to calling them. that tendency was also the case on reddit in the early days (and to some extent still influences the site’s cultural lean) and seems to be particularly common among stereotypical Silicon Valley types. a big calling card of that group is usually waxing poetic about the need to preserve almost unfiltered freedom of speech even though no website trying to preserve that has ever gone well.

Anarchists will always get persecuted by any state, their goal is to abolish the state itself, and no state is going to go down without a fight.
Libertarians on the other hand, while they share some of the same ideas, can fly under the radar… but only as long as they don’t oppose those of the state, like in an individualist capitalist one, not so much in a communist authoritarian one.
