"Coders confuse technical power with social change. They think: “If I can write the tool, I can fix the politics.” But tools reflect cultures. Without collective governance, tools just reproduce existing hierarchies."

Good post of @hamishcampbell which reminded me of Aaron Swartz's "all code is political" statement. Sadly, in the "teach all to code" we quietly left out socio-political part - because it makes tons of people uncomfortable.
