It breaks my heart because up until a few years ago Iowa was super progressive. All through the states history it was progressive. One of the first states to allow women to sell post secondary education, one of the first states to desegregate schools, one of the first to allow interracial marriage. Used to be #1 in education... now it's just... awful unless you're cis, het, white, Christian...
It always amazes me how so many of these self-described techies think there is no one else on the planet that can do the exact same job they are doing, and that they are irreplaceable.
Every single person who leaves a job gets replaced by another qualifed individual if the position is mission critical.
