There is already a strong “I did this on my own” and “i make enough money to not need a union” sentiment in IT as an industry. Plenty of people that are “experts in one thing, so I must be an expert in everything.” It is a field that favors autodidacts, so these myths self reinforce very easily.
The majority are left leaning, but it’s not an overwhelming majority. Maybe 60/40. This policy will fuck conservative IT people, for sure.
