One thing I really like about technology is that in the long arc of time it isn't politicized. It just *is*.
In the emergent stage it's often politicized. But then eventually it just wins.
Electricity was a topic of political opinions until it wasn't. Same for cars. Same for Bitcoin. Same for everything that changes things in a big way.
Politics are powerful, but they are local and temporary. Technology is global and permanent. It either works and spreads, or it doesn't and fades.
