Note I said “pro business,” which probably checks out for someone who’s formed connections with multiple tech businesses over the years. When you’re around people who believe something like that, it often seeps into your way of understanding the world. Now that the neoliberal house of cards is collapsing, Linus is realizing that the tech business community themselves were the biggest believers in the lie.
And like I said, he’s Canadian. There is no way that he couldn’t have seen through that unless he was flagrant about his sheer stupidity. You can’t live next door to that shithole and see what they do, have our news cover it for years and be part of this country while honestly thinking that America is good for business. Not if you have been paying a fraction of attention to the world around you. The only way he believes that about America is stupidity or surrounding himself with people who blow smoke up his ass.
This shit is why I’ve never trusted Linus. Just because he’s smart in one area doesn’t mean he’s smart across the board. Moments like this prove it.

In all fairness, he kind of lived his own version: started a company on his own, became successful, got pretty rich.
