In a revealing takedown, Nick Clegg, former Meta president of global affairs and once UK deputy prime minister, called Silicon Valley 'cloyingly conformist' and rife with 'herd-like behavior.' Highlighting the 'tech bro' culture, Clegg criticized its mix of 'machismo and self-pity,' noting that the region's richest leaders, like Elon Musk, see themselves as victims rather than fortunate. Clegg observed, 'If you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression,' perfectly roasting a tech hub that dresses alike, drives the same cars, and shares the same delusions of hardship.
