Sadly that's what happens when people have a "high" technological culture with absolutely zero political nor ethical education. They see all the cool gadgets while being completely blind to the political and social side effects
This is a good point. It's like a strange form of selective magical thinking, or maybe it's really just a global psychosis.
Tech people without a background in humanities (not academic, even just because of personal interest) are the most prone to this in my experience.
