How are you contributing to that?
I think it's time for you to be introduced to the concept of "cognitive work". We have been doing that for a few thousand years now.
open source startups are still part of the same ecosystem that fuels big tech. Big tech, being more powerful, can capture commons very easily and that's true for the vast majority of open-source code. The very concept of open-source was conceived by a person with the same ideological and cultural background of the tech oligarchs now in power.
Until it starts using its power to decide what technology and contracts are taken by the company. That's the endgame of the tech labor movement and the labor movement in a lot of industries that deal with ugly stuff.
Also there's no ethical production under capitalism.
By working for a company and thus make them dependent on your labor (to some degree) you have power. By not working for that company, you have no power.
Catholics believe in free will. You're free to struggle against challenges. God is not a puppeteer you have to obey to.
Life is a gift from God and should be preserved. Chasing death and risks has little to do with Christian values.
There are also people staying to try to unionize or sabotage the company. Don't bundle them with the scabs. Quitting won't change much within meta.
I organize tech workers. The expectation that they are going to fight an uphill battle inhibits a lot of them and often it's not the scenario they are faced with. Tech workers being skeptical of the possibility of unionizing their workplace is a mind virus that needs to be eradicated for anything to happen. If then they find hostility, there are endless means to win over their colleagues, but if you discourage them before even starting, nothing will ever change.
If people stopped repeating this stuff, it would help

The pro-union sentiment on HackerNews definitely grew in the last 5 years. Also those are tech-enthusiast tech bros, which are a small fraction of the workforce of any tech company or even of technical tech workers overall. Most people I know avoid hackernews because it's a cesspool, regardless of their political stance.
