A lot of the leftist anti-techie/anti-brogrammer sentiment is just a resurgence of old-school taylorist notions of management.
Dilbert, Hacker and Painters, How Software Companies Die, Managing Humans and similar works were about nerds being managed by people who did not understand their work, and about creative, exploratory or otherwise highly nonlinear projects doomed by the Waterfall Model and taylorism.
Suits, MBAs and Management Consultants have been reasserting themselves, but this time, they are #woke.
