I think there's a huge number of people who are doing badly in life or something and just wanna see the destruction of society.
It's either that or they're ideologically driven. This is the same person who was arguing for "getting rid of money and wealthy"[1]. I have noticed that in the eyes of communists, Russia can do no bad. In my own country, the leader of the communist party has refused to condemn Russia's invasion. Food for thought.
This is because "the tech" is just a tool. To me what matters is what problem you're solving. What you're saying effectively is that your don't care about solving problems, you just like playing with the tools you're familiar with.

Saying "Germany needs to look after it's energy independence" is synonym with "the west cant trust Russia", and saying "I'm taking the USA out of NATO" is synonym with "the west can trust Russia".
So he just claimed two opposite views and his fan it's pick and choose.
I would be asking that, if we were talking about someone who's reliably correct. But since we're talking about someone who's held every position and it's opposite on any given subject, I think it's quite obvious what's going on. It's called survivorship bias.
It's called introduction
