Yes, personally while reading the comments, I sometimes just think "This person is using conventional pro-capitalist arguments" and move on. Similar thoughts might occur if I were reading technical communications as a mathematician in Soviet Russia, a developer of early computers for the US government, or engineer of weapons systems under feudalism.

That doesn't necessarily mean I reject those arguments; but it doesn't mean I accept them either. Given the state of the world, it makes sense that the ideology here reflects the capitalist, masculine perspectives in the Californian software industry.
