Interesting variant of dehumanisation [1] that often precedes the act of taking property without compensation. The gap between the article's "the city [the tech workers] fought so hard to conquer", and the reality that is squarely the opposite (tech workers did not engage in violence at all, did not fire a single shot) is remarkable, and scarily Orwellian.
