While "they" (the #tech #overlords and a certain group of #reactionary #centrist #pundits) don't all own caliper sets, their belief in rigid #hierarchies of "ability" and "merit" also makes them all, at a minimum, "#race #science"-curious. There is a natural order to things, and they are, of course, at the top of it.

A common observation is that Twitter broke the brains of these people, as they had never before been exposed to people pointing out what stupid assholes they are. It sounds a bit silly, but having observed those brains breaking in real time I think it's actually quite true and maybe quite important!
