Tech "journalists":

1) Harass you, then complain about harassment
2) Try to get you fired, then pretend cancel culture isn't real
3) Crash a company's stock price, making everyone poorer, while pretending to care about employees

Anything for clicks. So, stop talking to them.

Notice how they won't answer your questions? These employees of media corporations think they are special, that they are better than you.

Perhaps someone can ask @reckless how much money they made from getting female founders fired.

Their entire pose of public service is also a lie.

To make this obvious, the Verge isn't resolving its internal HR issues by publishing out-of-context public Slacks.

They made everyone poorer with their coverage. Except themselves. And ain't that what's important in the end?

Hey, @reckless, at what point do you think citizen concerns about false reporting should warrant public attention?

The Verge is a subsidiary of Vox, which did us all a public *disservice* by printing unretracted false information on COVID.

You contributed to that too.

Also Verge: "March was The Verge's all-time biggest month, with 54m unique visitors and 98m pageviews."
