It feels like every time I find a podcast about security/networking/technology the hosts end up saying some pretty off-color stuff, or I look them up and they also host right wing podcasts. Are there any that are more leftist, hosted by LGBT peeps, or at least not actively bigoted ?

Even though they’re both “anti-establishment”, it’s funny looking at the differences between techno-libertarians and techno-anarchists. They both claim to want the same thing, but one side mostly just looks for unregulated systems that they can early adopt and exploit profit from, and the other side regularly gets their hard drives confiscated by the FBI.

Anarchists will always get persecuted by any state, their goal is to abolish the state itself, and no state is going to go down without a fight.

Libertarians on the other hand, while they share some of the same ideas, can fly under the radar… but only as long as they don’t oppose those of the state, like in an individualist capitalist one, not so much in a communist authoritarian one.
