Kara Swisher, the tech journalist who once described herself as the "liberal lesbian Donald Trump of San Francisco," wants to buy the Washington Post from Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. The idea has the hallmarks of Silicon Valley delusion in the pre-Trump era when the tech industry was dominated by godless left-wing tyrants intent on "changing the world" with their benevolent lunacy. In 2012, for example, Mark Zuckerberg's college roommate, Chris Hughes, who pioneered the Facebook "poke" button, bought the New Republic and proceeded to run it into the ground while setting untold millions on fire trying to get his annoying husband elected to Congress. Those were the days.
