Wake up, guys. People have had tech giants invade their life way too much and they've all seen in The Social Network what kind of person a poster boy like Mark Zuckerberg really is.

Its the "Anti globalization of fools" want to rile up your nice political machine just go "techie techie techie" any one get the reference to the infamous political observation I am making here.
This motivation is not sufficiently acknowledged on HN. I think people are afraid to face up to this fact. A lot of what feminists say about rape culture is true, and similar observations apply to nerds. Our culture trivializes physical and sexual (wedgies) assault on nerds. It is only natural that this same culture put on a front of false outrage when some nerds earn a good living.
The Social Network is heavily dramatized, and not really realistic. You shouldn't take a Hollywood movie as reference for real-life. IMHO, the way they depicted MZ in the movie is completely off (spoiled arrogant ass-hole), that's not what he is like in real life.
