i dont get this blindspot by lots of developers parroting this uber technocratic nonsense.

There's no such thing as some apolitical, objectively best approach to a technical problem. Instead of arguing about specific merits about specific issues people throw out this big wide handwave about how "idea X is simply technically the wrong choice", as if this is a legit position to have.

Take a philosophy course for god's sake before you engineer us all to death.
